Last week clinical aide Amy Baumgardner, 48, of 3916 Petre Road, was indicted on a felony theft of drugs charge, also accused of stealing pills from students at Reid.
Baumgardner’s charge stems from allegations she stole Adderall pills that were stored at the school for students who were prescribed the drug, according to court records.
She was arrested Sept. 15 following an investigation by the sheriff’s office and was terminated five days later. A parent complained about missing medication, according to court records.
