Houston ISD Takeover: Miles Is Trying to Purge Great Teachers. Don’t let him win! 8,000 teachers gone in two years – and these are just two of many.
A beloved Durham teacher with 11 years of service, top scores, and deep family ties to HISD was abruptly removed “to protect the culture.” [LINK]
A longtime HISD teacher and union leader once praised by Chief Massey as “high-performing” was removed for refusing to violate special education and emerging bilingual laws after filing a state complaint. [LINK]
These aren’t isolated incidents; they’re a glimpse into a district-wide purge under Miles’ disastrous takeover. Save our students.
