Director of CT’s controversial school construction grant program resigns

The person hired to replace Konstantinos Diamantis to steer the state’s school construction grant program has resigned after barely four months on the job. Douglas Rogers resigned from his job as director of the Office of School Construction Grants & Review on March 13 in an email to the state Department of Administrative Services human resources department. The email didn’t give a reason for his sudden departure. In an interview this week, Rogers said he couldn’t adjust to the slow pace of state government work. He was hired after an extensive search to replace Diamantis, who was removed as the director in October 2021 after state officials were informed that a federal grand jury was investigating several school constructions projects.
