Superintendent, Principal of CVHS Must Resign

The Superintendent and The Principal of CVHS must resign. A former teacher at CVHS was arrested on 7 federal counts of sexual assault on a minor (his student). Parvin Ahmadi and Christopher Fortenberry attempted to put that teacher back in his classroom AFTER having evidence of inappropriate conduct as well as accusations of violent behavior on his part in his classroom. AFTER putting him on leave BECAUSE of those accusations. They were only stopped in their attempt to return the teacher to his position because students found out and threatened to walk out of school in protest. The recording of the board meeting immediately after these events is still available on YouTube. It proves that the district attempted to put this predator in his classroom again. Parvin Ahmadi and Christopher Fortenberry, as well as the director of HR for the district, should resign or be forced to resign. The Superintendent had the gall to end her recent email about the arrest to say she wants the students to feel safe coming forward with concerns. Her actions, and the actions of her administration, prove that our students are not safe, cannot safely speak up and they will not be protected when they do under the current district administration.
