Judge dismisses most charges in Rutherford lawsuit
Former Increase Miller Elementary School teacher Kathleen Rutherford’s lawsuit against the school district has been almost entirely dismissed, leaving only one charge remaining. Ms. Rutherford had sued the district after being suspended and then transferred to John Jay Middle School following an alleged incident in 2008.
Ms. Rutherford, a longtime teacher at Increase Miller, had sued the district after she was accused of shouting at a student and destroying student work near the end of the 2007-08 school year. According to the lawsuit, she had alleged that she was punished “to appease a member of the board of education whose children baselessly complained about [Ms. Rutherford] in early June 2008.”

It took four years for the John Jay bowling team to go from a newcomer to an established competitor, a journey capped off last season when the boys team finished seventh in Section 1.
The challenge now is to keep the ball rolling, but without many of the key figures who helped the Indians get to where they are today.
“It’s definitely going to be different this year,” said head coach Paul Plutzker, whose team opens the season today against Rye Neck. “We’ve got a new look and it’s going to be exciting, and it’s going to be interesting.”
