Richard Gonzales fallout at Lancaster ISD; special and bilingual ed supervisor reassigned

Due to special education and bilingual education supervisor Richard Gonzales having been decertified due to inappropriately disciplining students elsewhere, he is now reportedly the former supervisor of these programs and is now in a finance position.

There are a couple of at least partially positive points here.

1. He won’t be working directly with children.

2. The school board did something. Of course, it had to do something, really.

That said, I am guessing the board will probably NOT further follow up on the issue not just of Gonzales’ hiring, but district hiring and board oversight in general, as I suggested it do.
