Des Moines public schools chief Ian Roberts has resigned amid his immigration challenges. Detained by authorities as a Guyana native living illegally, Roberts' lawyer claims a prior attorney led him to believe his case was resolved. The school board had given Roberts until Tuesday to prove legal work status or face dismissal. Roberts cited a desire not to distract from student education for his resignation. His legal team is fighting a deportation order.
