It remains to be seen if the educators will appeal the decision made by the Board of Education.
The Fort Worth ISD school board voted Tuesday to fire two high school principals but school district officials won’t say why.Community members are reacting to the firing of two Fort Worth Independent School District principals with confusion and shock, as details of what led to their dismal remain unclear.
In response to the Star-Telegram’s story about the decision made at Tuesday’s board meeting, several community members“Y’all fire the good & keep the ones that don’t care about our students. SMH!” one person stated. “I know that they did not take the vote very lightly. I’m sure it was a very serious matter that they had to consider,” she said. “I wish Mr. Garcia well, and we hope to continue this foundation that he inspired us to start.”
At Tuesday’s board meeting, multiple people also spoke in support of Smith and her leadership at Eastern Hills. Ciara Jackson, a senior at Eastern Hills, told the board she has felt a loss of support since Smith’s absence, as Smith would consistently check in with her about her grades and make time to talk to Jackson in general.
The Star-Telegram has reached out to the Texas Education Agency for verification on whether Smith or Garcia has requested an appeal over their firings.
