The principal of Paso Robles High School is on leave following accusations she was involved in a hit-and-run crash while driving a school vehicle.

Shortly after law enforcement arrived at the high school on Monday, Paso Robles Joint Unified School District administrators placed 42-year-old Megan Fletcher on administrative leave. Mike Susank, assistant principal and athletic director, will serve as interim principal.

On June 15, while driving a school district Expedition, Fletcher allegedly made a U-turn on Highway 46 near Shandon and hit a boat trailer. While the other driver pulled over, Fletcher allegedly drove by while flashing a peace sign.

Area residents have voiced concerns that she was not held accountable at the time. CalCoastNews will provide additional information after it becomes available.

June 15th, wow!! If she really did this and had the nerve to flash a peace sign, fire her immediately! No one will respect her if this is true.


So CalCoast thinks an incident in June was just discovered and five months later she is put on Admin Leave?? Guess again as that was a bad guess.


“Paid” administration leave I’m sure, in other words an extended paid vacation….
