St. Paul assistant principal quits job, accused of stealing nearly $190K from Wisconsin church
A St. Paul school administrator accused of stealing from her Wisconsin church has resigned her job after a 19-week period of paid administrative leave.
St. Paul Public Schools placed Kara Amundson on leave Aug. 24 after the St. Croix County sheriff’s office notified the district about the criminal investigation, human resources director Laurin Cathey said.
The district paid her a total of $56,589 before she resigned Jan. 6, Cathey said in response to a public records request. Amundson’s salary as an assistant principal at Highland Park Middle School was $121,131.
Cathey said the district considered Amundson “innocent until proven guilty” and was waiting for the criminal investigation to conclude before taking action.
