If there is bullying and politics happening an investigation needs to be done. I do know several good teachers who have resigned or looking at other employment options due to unrofessionalism and bullying.

I recommend the removal of both the Lindholms due to nepotism. I however, do not have any information on anyone else so I will not support the removal of them due to lack of information.

Tax Payers have the right to demand transparency and accountability for those entrusted to run the Marion ISD and this includes the elected School Board members

That is great to hear. Consider yourself lucky. I have over 53 of your former colleagues that have been targeted, we have the documentation but will not be publicly sharing it. We have documentation to support financial misuse, hostile work environment, targeting, discrimination, nepotism and retaliation. Feel free to contact me anytime at 830-305-6926 or email [email protected] if you'd like more information.

As a former MISD employee, I have had many interactions with all levels of leadership at Marion and never once felt disrespected or that their behavior was in any way unprofessional or questionable. The reasons behind this petition are vague and unsubstantiated - it seems that this is just a case of people not really liking the current leadership but not having any actual evidence of wrongdoing. I'm truly troubled to see that the jobs and integrity of 6 people are being targeted in this way. Frankly, this feels wrong.

If you are a Board Member ... you should post your name..... if your head is in the sand on this ... you’re part of the problem. Feel free to call me, email me, and I’ll send you the dozens of letters from teachers. Were you not at the November meeting when Mrs. Harrell spoke ? It’s recorded if you need a refresher.
For her to have the courage to stand up and speak, is so brave and she was discounted when Robertson’s contract has been renewed. You should be ashamed of yourself for not hearing the cries , reading exit interviews that claim hostile work environment. If you need the proof, I’m more than happy to forward it to you. Don’t be a coward and post anonymously.

I do not believe the school board members have our children's best interests at heart.

You are either part of the corruption or completely ignorant, and you need to go, too. The MOUNTAINS of evidence are unavoidable. It's a shame that it is having to be taken care of through TEA because the corruption runs so deep in this district that nobody can be trusted. Personally, I have emails, photos, audio recordings, written legal documents from the above named people, statements from parents and teachers, and it is ALL going to TEA.

As a current member of the Board of Trustees, I do not know of any scandal or corruption. I want to publicly show SUPPORT of the current, Superintendent, Administration, my colleague Mr. Purcell and all of the Board of Trustees at Marion ISD. I believe in them and KNOW that we have quality leadership in place. As far as the teachers/staff who "live in fear" or are "oppressed", just like the alleged corruption, there has been NO evidence produced that supports this claim at all. This is beyond ridiculous.
