A small-town superintendent resigned at 6:47 a.m. the same morning a contractor found a framed Master of Science diploma leaning against a concrete pipe under the district office - intact glass, square frame, eleven years on the wall. How did a forged Hartwell University degree survive in Dellard Unified for more than a decade, and what does that survival mean for the students whose reading scores rose under the woman who held it?
In this episode, we tell the timeline of Cheryl Anne Parker’s rise from uncertified classroom aide to superintendent, the construction of a fake diploma and supporting letters, and the two separate opportunities the system had to catch the fraud - one of which was closed inside a filing cabinet. Which decision, and whose choice, allowed the forgery to persist?
Person: Cheryl Anne Parker
Institution: Hartwell University
Person: Christine Henderson
Date: October 2022
Location: Dellard Unified School District administration building
- The framed diploma certified a Master of Science in Educational Leadership and hung above a crawlspace for eleven years.
- Parker arrived in Dellard County in spring 2011 at approximately 23 years old and was hired as assistant principal that spring.
- By 2016, at approximately 30 years old, Parker was superintendent of Dellard Unified overseeing four schools and roughly 1,100 students.
- Reading proficiency in the district rose from the 38th percentile to the 62nd percentile during Parker’s tenure.
- In 2014, enrollment coordinator Christine Henderson wrote “No record found” on a credential verification form and then placed that form inside a filing cabinet.
