Duluth's only black principal sues district for discrimination

DULUTH — The Duluth School District’s only black principal filed a lawsuit in federal court Monday alleging the district and its top leaders discriminated and retaliated against her in what the suit calls “transparent efforts to chill her speech and to undermine her ability to lead and make change where it is so desperately needed.”

Tonya Sconiers, who until this summer was principal of Denfeld High School, had been a vocal critic of district policies and an advocate for equity between the two high schools.
