TREYNOR, Iowa (AP) – A western Iowa schools superintendent has agreed to drop the appeal of his 30-day state license suspension in exchange for a renewed contract from the school board. The Daily Nonpareil reports that the Treynor Community School District board last week extended Kevin Elwood’s contract for the next school year but gave him no raise. In return he dropped his appeal.

On Aug. 7 the Iowa Board of Educational Examiners suspended Elwood’s license, saying he should not have let his son work unsupervised as a custodian for the district after the son was accused of inappropriate sexual conduct. Elwood was accused of two violations of Iowa code.

In September 2013 Elwood’s son, Kreighton Elwood, pleaded guilty to two counts of assault and one of false imprisonment.
