Bettendorf superintendent resigns after arrest
BETTENDORF (AP) — Bettendorf schools Superintendent Marty Lucas, formerly superintendent in Charles City, has resigned in an agreement with the district that resolves a dispute spurred by his second arrest on drunken driving charges.
The agreement announced Wednesday calls for Lucas to resign effective July 15. The deal includes payments of $25,000 from the school district and $24,000 from the district’s insurance company.
Lucas was hired as superintendent in 2005. He was put on paid administrative leave in June in response to his Feb. 28 arrest on charges of driving while intoxicated.
The school district last year had an enrollment of about 4,400.

" What a poor role model, both of the Superintendent, and also from the school district. I was from the school district where he got his first one years ago, and I am quite suprised (and ashamed of the district for that matter) that he got to keep his job with that one. "
