[2] Ed Gilley was the final superintendent of the district; he was hired for the position in 1989.
[3] The students left the district when the U.S. Navy removed children and spouses from the air station.
[4] The district itself closed in June 1996,[1] due to a ruling from a state court.
[5] The state of Alaska sought to revoke Gilley's certificate for being a school administrator,[3] accusing him of improperly billing the district, taking district-funded trips,[5] and unfairly reporting a higher income than he actually had to the Alaska teacher retirement system.
[6] In 1998 Gilley did not admit to wrongdoing but agreed to voluntarily give up his license.
