DEARBORN HEIGHTS, Mich. (CBS DETROIT) - Dearborn Heights Annapolis High School has officially reinstated principal Aaron Mollet while superintendent Dr. Tyrone Weeks has been placed on paid administrative leave. 

Mollet was suspended about two weeks ago without an explanation. He has been reinstated for the remainder of the school year.
