Avoid Westborough Middle School and the district. Under CA Ed. Code §§ 49079 & 32281(d), principals must warn teachers of students with violent or dangerous histories. Here, the Principal—aided by the entire SpEd department—withheld critical safety info and tried to shift responsibility onto me. This wasn’t just negligence, it was unlawful and put staff and students at risk.

Wow, that's scary. Hopefully you, your coworkers, and the students are safe.

There is a law that every District must have a Workplace Violence Protection Plan. Also, I think under CA Ed Code that teachers are mandated to report violent students. Have your union look into it.

Prior disciplinary actions/history is actually confidential and requires parental consent for disclosure, per FERPAa. I know when we would do suicide assessments and or threat assessments, if I knew the teacher wouldn’t share w others I’d get them up to speed. If I thought or knew they’d talk about it in the lunch room or their teammates , I actually do not share. The principal gets paid to deal with it, not me.

I always found the “dangerous student” issue to be interesting because of OSHA laws. If Ricky were a can of gasoline he definitely wouldn’t be allowed in your classroom but he’s dangerous as is-with his razor blades and metal shards and horrible history.

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.
