MICHELLE TOUCHE AND I AM A RESIDENT IN DISTRACT SEVEN.
I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU TO THE DALLAS I.S.D. BOARD OF TRUSTEES FOR ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK TODAY AND THANK YOU FOR BEING UP SUPPORTIVE OF LIBRARY. I REALIZE THERE IS A LIBRARIAN AT EVERY CAMPUS THANK YOU TO YOU ALL AND LEADERSHIP.
I HAVE A MASTERS DEGREES IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION AND LIBRARY SCIENCE. I'M A RETIRED EDUCATOR WITH MORE THAN 20 YEARS IN DAI.S.D. I SERVED THE COMMUNITY AT ACADIA PARK, SAM HOUSTON AND LASTLY AT N.W. HARLEY EARLY CHILDHOOD CENTER. WE HAVE BEEN OUTSOURCED.
EVERYBODY IN THE ROOM HAS BEEN OUTSOURCED BUT AN IDEOLOGICAL BULLY WHO HAPPENS TO GAIN THE EAR OF DAN PATRICK IN AN ELECTION YEAR. DURING HIS AUGUST 19TH PRESS CONFERENCE, THE LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR THREATENED WITH PROPOSING A BILL DURING THE NEXT LEGISLATIVE SESSION THAT WILL LOWER DISTRICT'S ACCOUNTABILITY RATING IF THE DISTRICT FAILS TO REMOVE THE BOOK STATE DETERMINED SHOULD NOT BE IN THE LIBRARY. AND THE THIS PRESS CONFERENCE THE LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR SAID SCHOOL DISTRICTS WERE BREAKING THE LAW, WEREN'T FOLLOWING BILL 313 BUT THAT IS NOT TRUE.
DALLAS ISLE TOING THE SENATE BILL.
OR IT WAS. THERE ARE SEVERAL COMPONENTS TO SENATE BILL 13. AMONG THEM ARE LIBRARY CATALOG TRANSPARENCY FOR PARENT, FORMAL CHALLENGE PROCESS AND AN ADVISORY GROUP'S RECOMMENDATIONS MUST BE CONSIDERED BEFORE REMOVING MATERIALS FROM THE SHELF.
NOW IF YOU LOOKED AT THE D.I.S.D. WEBSITE WE HAVE THE FIRST WIN HAND DOWN. A USER FRIENDLY PARENT RESOURCE.
BUT THE NEXT TWO -- WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF THE PRESS CONFERENCE, THE DALLAS I.S.D. SENT OUT E-MAILS TO EVERY LIBRARIAN WITH A LIST OF BOOKS PROVIDED BY THE AFOREMENTIONED BULLY THAT HAD TO BE REMOVED. TENS OF THOUSANDS OF BOOKS WERE REMOVED FROM THE SHELVES JUST LIKE THAT.
NO FORMAL CHALLENGE. NO CONSIDERATION.
DURING HIS PRESS CONFERENCE, THE LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR DESCRIBED THE BOOKS USING PHRASES LIKE DARK DEMONIC CONTENT, DIRTY, VULGAR, FILTHY BOOKS AND PORNOGRAPHIC.
WHOSE RECOMMENDATION? A WOMAN DRESSED UP AS A SWEET TEXAS HILL COUNTRY NEIGHBOR AND ONE WHO HAS BEEN TERRORIZING SCHOOL STRICTS. HOW DOES SHE KNOW THE BOOKS ARE BAD? BECAUSE AS SHE STATED, GOD GAVE HER THE PERFECT CLEAR VISION. THE LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR WAS HAPPY TO HITCH HIS WAGON TO HER HORSE BUT HE DOESN'T FOE WHAT IS ON THE LIST. HE HAD TO WALK BACK HIS STATEMENT REGARDING BOOKS ABOUT THE HOLOCAUST.
AND WHAT OTHER BOOKS ARE ON THE LIST THAT DAN PATRICK TO THAT
[00:10:01]
DOESN'T KNOW ABOUT. >> THANK YOU.
WILL THE NEXT WITH THE SPEAKERS PLEASE COME TO THE MICROPHONE.
>> MARIANNE HOSKIN AND JEROME KENNEDY.
MARIANNE HOSKINS NOT PRESENT. JEROME KENNEDY?
PRESIDENT AND MEMBERS OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES.
I AM A FORMER I.S.D. EMPLOYEE, 108730.
I SERVED AS A SPECIALIST AT THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND HERE TO SPEAK ABOUT THE RETALIATION I EXPERIENCED AFTER RAISING CONCERNS ABOUT MY ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES.
I BELIEVE THE RETALIATION BEGIN IN AUGUST 2025 AFTER I SHARED THE T.E.A. PARENT LIAISON RESPONSIBILITIES WITH MY ADMINISTRATION. I EXPERIENCED WHAT I BELIEVE WAS A PATTERN OF BULLY, FALSE ACCUSATION AND ESCALATING TREATMENT. IN OCTOBER 2025, I FILED RETALIATION GRIEVANCE ON APRIL 28TH, 2026, I RECEIVED A LETTER OF CONCERN AND ON APRIL 29 I WAS PLACED ON ADMINISTRATIVE LEAVE.
WHICH LATER I WASSEN FORM OF THREE ALLEGATIONS ON MAY 27, SUBMITTED A RETURN RESPONSE TO ALLEGATIONS ADDRESSING ALL THREE AND PROVIDING THE CONTEXT. I BELIEVE IT WAS NECESSARY.
I RAISED CONCERN ABOUT THE NEUTRALITY OF DISCIPLINE GRIEVANCE PROCESS. AFTER MONTHS OF THE PROCESS, AND ITS EMOTIONAL IMPACT I SUBMITTED MY RESIGNATION EFFECTIVE AUGUST 6, 2026. THAT SAME DAY I RETURNED TO THE SCHOOL WITH PARENT WHO WAS MY WITNESS.
ADMINISTRATION CALLED THE POLICE ON BOTH OF US.
WE WERE COOPERATIVE WITH THE POLICE.
ON SEPTEMBER 16, I RECEIVED OFFICIAL NOTICE THAT ANY DISCIPLINARY GRIEVANCE CASE NUMBER 100267 WAS CHOSEED.
THE DISTRICT STATED THE REPEAT WAS BEING GRANTED AND LETTER OF CONCERN WILL BE REMOVED FROM YOUR PERSONAL FILE.
APPRECIATE THAT THE MEETING WAS GRANTED.
I HAVE PROVIDED ARE THE GOVERNMENT BOARD WITH HAND OUT CONTAINING A CHRONOLOGY OF EVENTS.
I HAVE ALSO INCLUDED Q.R. CODES CONTAINING MY SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION INCLUDING PICTURE, VIDEOS, FOR THE BOARD'S REVIEW.
BECAUSE I ONLY HAVE TEE MINUTES I CANNOT EXPLAIN EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED. THE DOCUMENTATION PROVIDES THE ADDITIONAL DETAILS AND EVIDENCE SUPPORTING WHAT I HAVE PRESENTED TODAY. MY REQUEST SIMPLE.
I WANT MY PERSONAL AND EMPLOYMENT RECORDS TO REFLECT MY EMPLOYEE INITIATED VOLUNTARY RESIGNATION AUGUST 62026 AND LETTER OF CONCERN REMOVED AS THE DISTRICT WAS STATED.
HAS STATED. I ASKED THE BOARD TO ENSURE THAT EMPLOYEES WHO RAISE CONCERNS ARE TREATED FAIRLY AND THE DISCIPLINARY PROCESSES ARE IN IMPARTIAL.
THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING KNOW SPEAK.
COMPLETE THE PUBLIC FORUM. >> COASTED THE SESSION.
