SALT LAKE CITY — Former West High School Principal Ford White's educator's license has been suspended for "no less than a year."
The suspension was back-dated to June 30, 2020, the last day White was under contract with the Salt Lake City School District.
In November 2019, White was placed on administrative leave to investigate his alleged mishandling of an incident on Nov. 14, 2019, involving three female students who were intoxicated on school grounds.
The Utah State Board of Education voted Wednesday to uphold the recommendation of the Utah Professional Practices Advisory Commission, which conducted a hearing in October with respect to White's teaching license.
