Petoskey Schools Places Three Band Directors on Administrative Leave

Three staff members at Petoskey Schools are now on administrative leave.

All three of the schools band directors, Tom Harder, Patrick Ryan, and Duane Willson, have not been at school and that will continue to be the case.

According to superintendent Chris Parker, they’ve been placed on indefinite administrative leave and there is no timetable for when they’ll be back, however the band program will continue.

Parker declined to comment further.
