A Florida high school principal who offered teachers' promotions in exchange for sex has resigned from his position.
Steve Van Gorden's resignation comes after a 300-page investigative report by Pasco County school officials into allegations of sexual harassment.
Several teachers claim Van Gorden, who is also the mayor of Zephyrhills, sent text messages offering career boosts in exchange for sex and threatened them if they refused.
Van Gorden said he's sorry.
"The bottom line is I'm truly sorry for what occurred, and it's not going to happen again," Van Gorden said.
Van Gorden has a year and a half left on his term as mayor.
