In August 2013, district superintendent Richard Como and athletics director Jim Donato left their jobs following the discovery of racist text messages on their district-provided mobile phones. Both were arrested in 2014 on charges of theft and state ethics violations. Donato pleaded guilty in June, 2016 with an agreement to pay restitution to the district for the $15,000 he admitted stealing. March 18, 2018 Chester County Common Pleas Judge Thomas G. Gavin sentenced Richard Wallace Como to a jail term in Chester County Prison of three to 23 months, followed by three years of probation, on the charges that he was found guilty of at trial in January – dealing in unlawful proceeds, theft by unlawful taking, theft by failure to make required disposition of funds, and conflict of interest.
Angelo Romaniello Jr. had been appointed acting superintendent following Como's departure, following which Taschner was voted in by the board in a 7-2 vote for a 5-year contract running July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2022. Taschner resigned on.
