Challenging our public school district’s obedience to county ‘health’ ‘orders’: Union-appointed attorney and I meet, district claims paid leave destroys due process for my 5 employee Grievances, district refuses to provide promised answers to central questions, district refuses to provide contractually-required ‘updated progress report every five work days’ on their ‘investigation’ of me (47 of ?)
"But he hasn’t got anything on," a little child said.
"Did you ever hear such innocent prattle?" said the child’s father. And one person whispered to another what the child had said, "He hasn’t anything on. A child says he hasn’t anything on."
"But he hasn’t got anything on!" the whole town cried out at last.

Perhaps the most helpful format for communication:
- Summary of events from September 2020 to the most recent article,
- Specific updates as they occur, and
- Preview of coming events.
- History: (articles 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59).
My best “shot” to explain, document, and prove the “Covid” + “vaccine” narrative are Crimes Against Humanity: a 4,700-word essay I sent to ~100 teacher colleagues in September, 2021 (received with silence to the facts, with ~20 eventual responses to be removed from such communications). My May 2022 essay to our teachers’ union Board is an excellent overview of the entire history, as is my June 14, 2022 retirement letter; both with emerging data demonstrating tremendous harm from these experimental injections (2-hour overview discussion with Professor Emeritus Jim Fetzer).
Summary (links = full documentation in those specific reports): The California “lockdown orders” necessary to “flatten the curve and keep hospitals running” have lasted since March 3, 2020. The California Emergency Services Act (ESA) is derived from California Government Code 8558 (b) requiring “beyond control” hospitals to authorize emergency dictatorial orders. Because Californians never received comprehensive hospital data, our government and corporate media “leaders” are lying in omission. Because problematic “positive cases”(and here, here) were substituted for “beyond control” hospitals, our leaders lie in commission. All testimony I’ve received from ~20 medical professionals here in NorCal report all hospitals they know of have been fully within their control throughout the “pandemic,” that hospitals have comprehensive area plans for record flu seasons they haven’t needed, and certainly didn’t need the military field hospitals or hospital ships for a real pandemic.
As a NorCal public school teacher, at the start of our school year in September 2020 I questioned our district’s leadership and teachers’ union how their negotiated policy to “obey” county “health” “orders” is legal given the above reasonable limit to dictatorial authority. I cited our mutual Oath to “support and defend” the US and CA Constitutions within their limited governing authorities. I reminded the district I merely ask them as educated professional adults to perform what we expect from all our Californian Middle School students in our State teaching standards: “Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of primary and secondary sources.” (page 81).
From September 2020 until May 1, 2022, I chose to mask identities of individuals involved to help shield them from any possible future harm when facts emerge to demonstrate to the public that these school administrators and teachers were either knowing participants, or dupes too weak in intellectual integrity and moral courage to recognize and defend literal Truth, Justice, and the American way of limited government under constitutionally-protected inalienable/Natural rights. I named names after 20 months of district lies and prima faciecrimes.
After two Sept. 2020 requests, the district contact person responded by ignoring my questions, and stating HUSD employees are required to obey “California mandates” “to protect you” (disobedient staff are placed on unpaid leave up to a year). I emailed our district superintendent, school board members, my school principal and two interested teachers that we teach all high school students in US History class that the district’s position of “just following orders” is an illegal defense, and asked again how ESA limits are being honored.
After continued district silence, I filed three legal complaints: federal, state, and a grievance for district violation of worker safety by issuing apparent dictatorial and illegal policy under direct threat of employment termination, $1,000 fines per violation, and one year imprisonment under Cal. Penal Code §§ 69, 148(a)(1).
Our union (HEA) responded with support to ask the district, and communicated privately they wouldn’t pursue the grievance to arbitration because working conditions were negotiated in good faith with high approval of union members. After I probed with a few questions, I retreated with HEA to keep them as allies with me to get answers from our contractual grievance process. That said, this first Grievance finished with district and union agreement that the complaint didn’t qualify as a grievance because all district policies were in conformance to law. Neither the district nor union ever addressed my question or citation about limits of dictatorial ordering authority.
I appealed the district’s answer to our community school board for what the district redefined as a “written complaint.” From October 2 to December 18 2020 the district was silent, despite policy promising a response within 30 days of the board’s receipt. After this December 13 reminder they were out of compliance for a response, the superintendent answered that the school board upheld the district response without comment.
I received a “non-response” after nearly 5 months from my complaint to the US Department of Justice regarding unlimited government. My complaint to the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing complaint was fielded by a phone call response in December, their promise to follow-up, and silence since.
In March 2021, our NorCal public school superintendent sent all staff an email citing county deaths from COVID nearing 1,300 with 80,000 “cases.” He also asked for our professional responses to an upcoming survey. I responded with three basic questions:
- How many of our staff and students have died of (not with) Covid?
- What is the current and historical data for overall county deaths given controversy over causes of deaths?
- How many staff and students have been injured by vaccines?
The superintendent ignored my emailed questions twice, which I then shared with our school’s ~100 teachers as Chair of a school Professional Learning Community (PLC) on broad educational topics directly affecting our school’s teaching and learning. A few teachers have communicated support, but our Social Science Department found no interest in this topic when I emailed them in inquiry.
Our district superintendent then "answered" my questions, and concluded with: “If you do not agree with the state and county guidelines or if you believe we are not following them, please pursue your questions and concerns with the appropriate agency.” I responded I would do so, and report my findings.
I followed up with 14 CA government agencies over 6 weeks, with all ignoring the question of how the limit of “beyond control” hospitals was being honored for “emergency” dictatorial authority. The only answer I received referencing limits to dictatorial orders was from CA Senator Glazer’s office, who offered that a stated 60-day limit I questioned applied only to “non-safety” related orders. I hadn’t considered an American legislature would surrender forever dictatorial powers to a governor or elected officials without a time limit, as public recourse would be limited to recall (as happened with Governor Newsom, albeit with Dominion “voting” machines, but that’s another history) or electing other legislators.
Therefore, at this point in our history, school district, teachers’ union, and CA government “answers” are at this point demonstrated as intentional lies of omission to claim they answered a question about ESA to “justify” dictatorial government while leaving out any consideration of crystal-clear letter and intent requiring that our hospitals are “beyond control.” The 14 CA government agencies claim dictatorial power to close businesses, stop social gatherings, force masking, force humans to forever remain no closer than six feet from each other, and with forever dictatorial power until legislators or governor dictate otherwise, and while lying in commission that “emergency powers” are authorized by unreliable “positive” “cases.” This power is dictated with direct threat of employment termination, $1,000 fines per violation, and one year imprisonment under Cal. Penal Code §§ 69, 148(a)(1) placed at the top of every county “health” “order.”
At the end of April 2021, I wrote a lengthy and fully documented report of those 14 CA government agencies’ responses, and emailed it with a cover letter to district leadership, school board members, teachers’ union leadership, our PLC members, and school teachers. The district’s Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources immediately responded with threats of disciplinary action for unspecified violations of district policies, as did my school principal. The district never responded to my repeated requests and Grievance to cite anything I wrote to substantiate their complaints. The district has never rescinded their first of four steps for employment termination.
Stop and appreciate the irony of public school district leadership refusing to cite factual claims while requiring it of all middle school students. Again: “Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of primary and secondary sources.” (page 81).
I appealed to our teachers’ union for relief (and here, here). After 4 emails and 15 days of silence from our union President and VP, I sent this email to 14 of the Board of Directors of our teachers’ union. Our President and VP then responded for a next step “to gain clarification regarding matters within our scope and discuss next steps, if any,” followed by a Zoom meeting. Our union President raised the topic at her regular weekly meeting with the district’s Assistant Superintendent of HR on May 25, 2021. The district then emailed meclaiming my PLC report “harasses or disparages” my colleagues “based on their political beliefs,” yet failed again to provide any documentation or explanation despite the union and my requests.
I responded with three employee grievances for apparent contract violations.
On July 8, I spoke by phone with our teachers’ union president, who reported that the district would again consider my Grievances as employee complaints outside their contractual obligations, and the HR Assistant Superintendent admitted failure to address my requests for the district to document and explain their complaints.
On July 9, 2021 our teachers’ union held a Zoom conference with ~100 teachers to explain the tentative agreement for work conditions for the 2021 - ‘22 school year to obey “the most restrictive health measures” “ordered” by state, county or federal government. I asked the first public question on the call for our union to explain how the state has ordering authority given the strict limits of “beyond control” hospitals, with union president, VP, and another union board member responding they are still representing my question, but all legal information they’ve received is that there is no requirement to oppose ordering authority until proven in court. This answer is consistent with my observations that people are conditioned to be told what to do by “experts’” “orders.”
The purpose of our mutual Oath is to safeguard inalienable/Natural rights against illegal “orders” from our own government. The United States rose as a nation because our own government issued “a long train of abuses and usurpations” in the form of illegal “orders.” Americans’ choices were to either surrender as colonial subjects under dictatorial rule benefiting Empire, or stand for what our mutual Oath “supports and defends.” Thomas Jefferson documented:
“In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.” ~ Declaration of Independence
My school district’s final answer to my three employee grievances came on July 21, 2021:
- Teachers, staff, students and families will follow “health” “orders” because they are ordered.
- “Health” “orders” are whatever is ordered. The district will not respond to requests for documentation of “ordering” authority, nor even acknowledge the question was asked despite legal obligation to explain how all policies are within the limits of the law.
- If teachers ask further questions how “health” “orders” are lawful or healthy, they will be disciplined up to termination under the “reason” that such questions “harass and/or disparage other’ political beliefs.”
On July 24 I responded to the district’s formal initiation of “disciplinary action steps” that lead to employment termination for unprofessional conduct by offering the district choice to finally cite their unsubstantiated complaints against me or withdraw the complaints and censorship, or face my attorney. On July 26, the district’s Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources responded in refusal to substantiate their claims of my unprofessional work; claiming “The District has provided you with the appropriate documentation that has sufficiently responded to your requests. At this time, there is no additional information that can be provided to you that has not already been provided.” Our teachers union President called me with analysis from her conversations with district leadership that the district is unwilling to look beyond their legal orders, and must be forced by court or legislative orders.
I had a productive first conversation with an America’s Frontline Doctors (AFLDS) connected attorney, who promised to converse with her team to evaluate my case for possible lawsuit support. A second conversation affirmed the strength of this case from its abundant documentation, and that the network of lawyers are filing lawsuits based on their judgment of the best cases to help the most amount of people in greatest need of protection. I promised my willingness to serve as a plaintiff if this case rises in their judgment as the most promising to litigate. I’ve been updating three law firms participating in lawsuits that have included Los Angeles USD, San Diego USD, and nearby Piedmont USD. The attorneys communicate appreciation of my professionalism, that they would enjoy representing this case, and continue to encourage my documented work for truth and justice under the law.
On September 4, 2021, I reported to my ~100 teacher colleagues my best “shot” to “red pill” them about dozens of game-changing facts corporate media never report (my published research on corporate media “reporting” lies known to be false as they were told for the many variants of the Wars on Terror). This report to teachers (at “Update 3”) is my best academic work as a scholar to publicly share comprehensive and game-changing facts to explain, document, and prove illegal “health” “orders” (and here).
On Friday September 17, our district superintendent announced the school board would address mandatory student “vaccines” on Wednesday, September 22. I responded to district and teachers’ union leadership with legal notice of their prima facie-crimes to “require” experimental medical products, and initiated another employee Grievance for contract violation guaranteeing policies in conformance to law.
On Monday September 20, the district superintendent emailed my school’s Admin Team, teachers’ union president, and me to dictate the Professional Learning Committee I chair was censored because my addressing the previous school year’s doubled failure rate with “distance learning” (the most destructive decline of student learning in district history) “is not aligned with school or district goals and may not continue. Please communicate with (school principal) how you intend to use collaboration time or participate in a PLC that is focused on standards based instruction, school, or district goals.” Consistent with history, the superintendent failed to cite anything I wrote to demonstrate his factual claims.
On Wednesday September 22, the school board voted 5-0 to “mandate” full student “vaccination” for “Covid” (again, please see my essay to ~100 teachers for absolute proofs of deserved quotation marks). The public comment session for 1-minute remarks were ~15 against and ~25 for. Four parents and two employees contacted me from my public comment including invitation to do so, which began our ongoing conversations and actions. My three employee Grievances (at that point) also gave our teachers’ union an ultimatum to honor our contract that all district policies be “in conformance with law” by standing with me against the district’s illegal “mandates” that violate US Codes 21 and 18, and California Government Code 8558 (b) that “emergency orders” authority requires “beyond control” local resources (hospitals in this case). CDC’s latest data seemed definitive proof that California and national hospitals are well within control, just as each and every one of the ~20 local doctors, nurses, and other professionals I’ve asked have told me since March 2020.
On October 2, I sent a second email to our teachers’ union President, VP, and district Board Members arguing for their legal and Oath-sworn obligation to stand with me to force the district to explain the legality of their “health” “orders” given the above crystal-clear in letter and intent legal limits (the district’s stated position is “we just follow orders, and so will you”).
On October 17, 2021 I sent another Professional Learning Committee (PLC) report to district and union leaderships + Boards, and ~100 teacher colleagues with two central topics. First: HUSD refuses to address limits to state/county/district “health orders” regarding required student and teacher use of Emergency Use Authorized medical products (EUAs), despite :
- Federal law Title 21 U.S.C. § 360bbb-3(e)(1)(A)(ii)(III) requiring EUAs be administered only and always with “option to refuse” experimental medicine.
- Article 6 of the US Constitution is explicit that federal law is superior to state law/“mandates”/“orders.”
- California Health and Safety Codes § 24171 to § 24176 uphold federal law that every individual: “Be given the opportunity to decide to consent or not to consent to a medical experiment without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, coercion, or undue influence on the subject’s decision.”
The second topic of the October 17 PLC report is that our teachers’ union shared their position why “health orders” to “require” EUAs is lawful: the government is not kidnapping and forcibly injecting teachers. Yes, seriously; that’s their “legal” “justification”: as long as the principal isn’t tackling teachers in the hallway to forcibly inject them at will, the policy of staff forced unpaid leave respects Title 21 freedom for full choice over medical experiments. I was glad to force an answer, and didn’t pursue further as I’d still rather keep the union as a partner to force reasonable district answers.
On October 21, 2021, our teachers’ union president emailed me to declare my employee grievance void that requested the district to either cite their legal authority for EUA work requirements given the limits of three definitive laws, or to downgrade “requirements for employment” to “advice.” The “reason” given was the union claims that the district doesn’t have to cite legal authority for policy because any proofs of illegal policies “do not concern violations of the CBA (Collective Bargaining Agreement)” despite the CBA stating all district policies must be “in conformance with law.” Both HEA and HUSD claim that state dictatorial “orders” are sufficient legal authority to compel obedience, and both have never addressed our mutual STATE OATH OF ALLEGIANCE for We the People to serve as a check on exactly this problem of illegal dictatorial government orders. My three subsequent communications to union President, VP, and Board were unanswered.
On October 28, 2021, HUSD responded to my last employee Grievance of policy violating California Health and Safety Codes § 24171 to § 24176 by unilaterally declaring it “an email request” of an “employee complaint” “against the legality of EUAs” that they then dismissed because we all must “follow orders.” I challenged that stand, as well as challenging district refusal to answer basic questions about “official” exemptions to EUAs.
On November 14, after a week of “official silence” from district and teachers’ union, I poked them again with questions, request to meet, and predictions of dire consequences to HUSD for their official silence beyond “just follow orders.” I also admonished HEA’s tragic-comic consent to CTA’s position that “option to refuse” experimental medical treatments allows employee termination without future ability of re-hire in public education. Both embrace Orwellian-violations of definitive CA and federal laws that “option to refuse” means the individual is free to accept or decline experimental medical products “without the intervention of any element of force, fraud, deceit, duress, coercion, or undue influence on the subject’s decision.”
On November 15, our school principal sent an “URGENT” email “ordering” ~200 students to the quad: “All unvaccinated students will be sent home, all vaccinated student (sic) will return to class with a pass.” I discovered I was also “health ordered” home for 10 days, until I demanded documentation of definitions from the principal, and reminding him this ordering authority requires proof I was within 6 feet of a positive case for 15 minutes. After claiming no memory of the policy, the principal and I reviewed and proved “district error” (but 14 of my students were not provided this documentation for discovery of error, nor another teacher). Although my school principal admitted he lacked authority to “order” me into isolated segregation, he still obeyed district “orders” to segregate unvaxxed students. I immediately emailed the Assistant Superintendent of HR to explain and cite district ordering authority to segregate healthy unvaxxed students, which she has failed to provide over ~20 requests up to March 2022. This week also had our teachers’ union request to HUSD accepted for a December 1 “Level III” Grievance meeting with the superintendent to discuss district censorship of my PLC and taking the first step to terminate my employment due to district claims of complaints HUSD refuse to cite. HUSD continued their 6th week of failure to provide me legal definitions of the medical/religious exemption process, but agreed to meet for discussion on Dec. 3. Both of these meetings would be attended by our teachers’ union President and me.
Ten students voiced interest in a “Truth Club,” and submitted paperwork to our Associated Student Body (ASB) with me as their club sponsor to address “the pandemic” and other game-changing areas of truth (here, here, here). On December 1 and 3 I had Zoom meetings with district leadership and our teachers’ union President regarding the previous paragraph topics.
On December 3rd, my principal sent another “friendly reminder” for weekly Covid testing required for my continued employment. For the second time, he mistakenly revealed all email recipients who are not vaccinated. I responded with another “reply to all” to challenge my principal to explain how the “health orders” he signs are legal given federal Title 21 requirements for optional experimental medical products without coercion, or to join those of us asking questions about how these “orders” are anything other than Orwellian-illegal. The principal chose silence as his response.
For the week of December 6, I followed-up with our school principal’s silence to our questions, and my briefed classroom students requested a Zoom meeting with the district to receive answers. Students were especially motivated to receive an explanation how the district can violate “required” health “guidance” by “ordering” healthy unvaccinated students to “separate but equal” 10 days’ “medical segregation” without evidence of “exposure” to a “positive” “tested” student by being within 6 feet for 15 minutes or more. They understood I was allowed to stay on campus because HUSD has zero evidence of exposure within 6 feet for 15 minutes, but students are not allowed the same freedom for an equal education.
On Friday December 10, I received the district’s reply to our Dec. 3 meeting: the district claimed that their policy requiring employee use of EUAs or being put on unpaid leave was a “broader right” of Title 21’s right of full and fail choice to accept or decline EUAs without coercion. I responded in detail with request for another meeting for HUSD to explain their Orwellian-inversion of simple terms to claim “broader rights” include forced student segregation and forced employee unpaid leave.
On December 14, I invited the district to surrender if they wanted to avoid an upcoming meeting with ~50 students with pointed questions. HUSD announced the following day they wouldn’t enforce student “vaccine requirements.” Because of the district’s refusal to address my questions in their December 10 response, I escalated those questions into Employee Grievances and/or District Complaints. On Dec. 18, I updated ~100 teacher colleagues on breaking events.
Also on December 14, the district superintendent officially responded to placing my PLC on two months of censorship under threat of my employment termination if I continued reporting to teachers in “unprofessional conduct” they claimed since April, but repeatedly refused to cite from anything I wrote, said, or did. They withdrew the censorship under claim that the “initial” censorship was valid due to “district confusion” that my addressing a doubled student failure rate was not “focused on standards based instruction, and/or school goals, and/or district goals.” HUSD made this claim despite the PLC report in question stating in the first paragraph that the purpose of the report is to address our doubled student failure rate (btw: the reading level in the paragraph averaged at the 10th Grade level among 5 tests). HUSD claimed they needed “clarification,” and chose censorship rather than asking clarifying questions citing any concern. HUSD also chose silence over my two months of questioning to cite their concerns and alleged policy violations, including silence to two levels of my employee Grievance. My “clarification” was sufficient to remove district censorship, but not sufficient to remove district threat of my employment termination.
After the Winter Break on January 4, 2022, our principal reported another claimed “positive” “case” of “Covid,” and “health” “ordered” 18 of my students into “separate but equal” medical segregation for 10 days of “isolated-public education.” Two students asked for my help to stand for their rights that HUSD has zero evidence they had “close contact” within 6 feet for 15 minutes to the “positive” student, as the district claimed was the rule for unvaxxed students. My question to the principal how this is legal was responded that my question was a “negative connotation” and refused to answer with promise of no further response (Update 1).
On Thursday Jan. 6 at 6:30 AM, I emailed the leaderships of HUSD and our teachers’ union of the facts, then one of the students and I met with the principal and assistant principal before school. The student, an 11th Grade female with spark and courage, further met with the APafter I left to teach classes, with the AP calling a school nurse then an assistant superintendent for help answering the question he couldn’t answer. Nobody had an answer of the district’s authority to QU-segregate students without proof of close contact. That assistant superintendent met the following morning with that student and a second segregated student (11th Grade male with quiet intelligence and strength). Both students reported that the Assistant Superintendent spent an hour trying to talk them out of their questions, claimed the district was acting “out of abundance of caution” (a talking point our principal also used). When the students insisted on answers, this assistant superintendent promised to call the county health department to ask “what to do about these two students.” Despite having no evidence of ordering authority, she maintained the district’s “health” “order” for their isolated segregation with the prima facie-illegal claim of “separate but equal” public education.
The assistant superintendent reneged on her promise to respond no later than Monday Jan. 10 (Update 1), and ignored my three emails requesting she state who she spoke with at the county public health department, what documents were referenced, and what was discussed. Because the assistant superintendent chose silence to these reasonable requests to fulfill her promise to two of my students, I emailed the leaderships of HUSD, our teachers’ union, and our high school’s teachers on Jan. 11, and again on Jan. 12 upon no district response (minus ~12 teachers requesting exclusion). My sharing documentation of an Assistant Superintendent’s lies to two students provoked my school principal into ad hominem attack (Update 4); stating my support of two segregated healthy students were “attacks,” “trying to indoctrinate students into his way of thinking,” and “is by far the lowest I have ever seen any "educator" sink in my 16 years in the profession.” The principal defamed my professional questions on school policies as “lengthy diatribes” “I refuse to respond (to),” then gave instructions to all my teacher colleagues how to block all emails from me on any subject. I find it difficult to imagine a more unprofessional response from a school principal to a teacher’s reasonable and cited questions on district policy.
The week of Jan. 10 to 14 was distance learning via computer because the district sent home too many healthy unvaxxed staff to keep the schools open. HUSD would later that month only send home unvaxxed students “in the same indoor space” as a “positive” “test,” but not staff: another prima facie-illegal policy with motive to not close the school and no apparent “health” concern.
On January 12, I emailed to my broadest audience the documentation of the assistant superintendent ignoring my emails requesting a report how school segregation is legal that she promised my two students, given nobody at the district can explain. The only response we received from that assistant superintendent was to our first standing student who emailed the assistant superintendent requesting a report. Her “answer:” “I do not have an update on how to prove the distance before quarantining.” Please note that this non-answer does not fulfill her promise to report on what she discovered by calling the county public health department, and is similar to a student missing a promised and due report on public policy, and when asked about it after two days being late, the student answers, “I do not have an update.”
This is a good time to mention that the California Teachers’ Association (CTA) ignored my second request for explanation how state and federal laws for optional experimental medical products can be violated by “health” “orders” (Oct. 20 and Dec. 30). I wonder why (Update 2).
On Jan. 14, I emailed HUSD + HEA leaderships and our school’s willing teachers that two Assistant Superintendents have refused to document and explain how student segregation to isolated “separate but equal” public education is legal. I also withdrew my consent, in what I consider an excellent public essay.
On Jan. 18, the district emailed to all staff and community members an “updated” policy to segregate unvaxxed students and staff if they were “in the same indoor space” as somebody “testing” “positive.” My response to district and union leaderships + boards included my promise for student and community complaints if I did not receive reasonable evidence authorizing “in the same indoor space.” HUSD chose silence as their response. By Friday I had 26 of my healthy unvaxxed students “health” “ordered” to isolated segregation from this “same indoor space” invented phrase, but HUSD chose not to enforce this on staff. HUSD “picking and choosing” some arbitrary “health orders” to enforce and not other arbitrary “health orders” proves a hidden political agenda (political=policy=“what is done”) to manipulate our school community, and certainly not a commitment to “health.”
On January 17, I reported to my broadest HUSD email audience that the district’s “requirement” for masks outdoors is also apparently a contrived “order” outside their authority (CDPH + CDC state “optional”), and I raise the question of HUSD fraud. On Jan. 19, our school principal emailed all staff our monthly meeting notes from Curriculum Council. Among the notes: “Share with Departments. Was emailed to all parents and students. Wear masks inside and outside at all times.” I responded to all that requiring masks outdoors is outside CDPH and CDC guidance, so therefore the policy is in apparent error. The principal replied to all with choice to ignore the facts, and defame my response as both unprofessional and unworthy of serious reply: “Aren’t you supposed to be teaching right now”? This disrespect opened the door for other staff to attack: I responded to ad hominem replies and demands for my censorship over the next ten hours. The principal never addressed the policy question, nor the unprofessional ad hominem he began in a remarkable email chain from professional educators “dedicated to factual mastery.” I conclude this to be among the most powerful evidence against the district, and for asking obviously important questions if I seek justice in a courtroom. This also validates my ongoing observation that ~98% of people cannot rise above “official” propaganda even when facts are clearly and professionally documented. I received my relative “Socrates verdict” :)
I engaged with our Social Science Department teachers (5 of 9 opted out) regarding these policies apparently outside legal limits. I offered our two hero students instructions how to file an official district complaint. I started calling the HR Assistant Superintendent during class time on speakerphone to get answers to our questions, emailed those questions to the Health Director and her, and promised to call with my classes until we got answers (we got no answers to messages we left).
On Jan. 22 I emailed leaderships of district, teachers’ union, and school admin (not boards) repeating documentation, questions, and promise to shine brighter light on the questions. Upon no response, on Jan. 23 I filed two more Grievances for apparently illegal policies on masks and student segregation, and promised to share the Grievances with teachers inviting their filing. I also promised to assist my 26 returning students from segregated “separate but equal” education to file complaints. On Jan. 23, the Superintendent promised a “response” the following day. On Jan. 24, I received notice from the HR Assistant Superintendent to not report to work on Jan. 25 (the first of 3 days of all-school final exams for the first semester, forcing me to cancel final exams for all my students) in order to be on a 9AM Zoom call that informed me I was placed on paid administrative leave to “investigate” my January 17 email (Update 1).
On Jan. 24 (Update 4) I received another notification from my principal that I was: “a potential close contact with a positive case in your class. Students that are fully vaccinated can stay in school if they are not showing any symptoms. Please let us know if you have any questions, and take care.” I responded with questions how the district can order unvaxxed students home but not staff, and where in any authoritative document HUSD is empowered for their “in the same indoor space” “health” “order.” The principal did not respond, of course.
Paid administrative leave is censorship to remove my capacity to communicate with colleagues, and to stop my participation asking questions and citing apparent inconsistencies of HUSD “health” “orders” to limits of law. This censorship is because any answer HUSD has so far provided is further demonstration their “orders” are outside the law. HUSD will extend their “investigation” about how and why I asked questions (rather than answer obvious and essential questions) until the end of the school year, I predict.
On Monday Feb. 7, I Zoom-met my CTA/HEA-appointed attorney to discuss my case from a perspective to “play defense” against any likely district allegation. I framed the case as district evasion from questions that prove illegal “health” “orders” that anyone can verify by comparing “orders” to limits of definitive laws. I also requested a professional analysis of suing the district for per se defamation and any other related protections/remedies for my professional reputation, freedoms from ongoing harassment, and coercion into retirement to avoid further abuses.
On Feb. 9, 2022, the HR Assistant Superintendent managing my paid administrative leave claimed my 5 active Grievances against the district were “in abeyance” because “contractual issues to be resolved would fall within regular work duties.” She did not respond to my request to cite district authority to destroy due process with Grievances, despite my citations of all applicable contract language I could find and imagine that both gave no such authority, and reminded all of ongoing due process rights. Moreover, in reading that section of our CBA, I discovered HR has one contractual duty to me: an “updated progress report every five work days until resolution” that the district was ignoring. I responded sharply, including my union-appointed attorney, and union President + VP + CTA liaison. HR also continued silence to my repeated requests to schedule a Zoom meeting for the district’s answers to essential questions HUSD promised to answer; some questions going back to early October 2020.
On Feb. 17 after continued district silence, I offered the district’s HR Assistant Superintendent whistle-blower status by joining our side (she did not respond). On Feb. 21, I filed a 6th active employee Grievance for the district violating seven contractual rights regarding my being placed on paid administrative leave to “investigate” how and why I’m asking questions (rather than answer them). My teachers’ union/CTA claimed that despite zero contractual language in support, my rights for Grievance due process are “in abeyance” “because” that “is the practice when folks are on leave.” I appealed to the CTA-appointed attorney, who promised a progress report on what the district is actually “investigating” about me, Grievances, and the possibility of a lawsuit against HUSD for their apparent harassment and defamation.
From Episode 48 on February 24 until March 10’s Episode 49, HUSD reported to me that they have nothing to report after at least 7 weeks of “investigation” (no surprise, as my union-appointed attorney and I are in agreement that the district can, and will, extend their “investigation” until the end of the school year to evade my questions and stop my reports to HHS staff). My attorney made a new and unique claim to district “legitimate” ordering authority on March 9 that Title 8 of the California Code of Regulations section 3205(c)(9)(E) allows employer discretion for “greater protections” and therefore allows an employer to create “health” “orders” outside any guidelines. I retorted in detail such a new “answer” after 18 months of asking HUSD + all 14 of the most authoritative CA government agencies is, on its face, bullshit after-the-fact desperation, and requested answers to pointed questions. On March 3, HEA’s President agreed to take my Grievances “out of abeyance” and join my request that the Superintendent and HR Assistant Superintendent answer all my questions! I accepted, and followed-up on March 10 to check status of this intriguing promise.
On March 25, 2022 I had a Zoom call with HUSD’s Superintendent, HR Assistant Superintendent, our teachers’ union President, and our local CTA representative to address 5 employee Grievances HUSD had ignored, then claimed are “in abeyance” after they forced me on paid administrative leave to “investigate” how and why I asked questions. The superintendent claimed all district “health” “orders” are lawful because they grant “broader rights,” and that is the answer to all my questions. He refused to answer my follow-up “How is forcing me on unpaid leave for declining experimental medical products a ‘broader right’ to my Title 21 right to freely decline experimental medical products” because he claimed that is a question for the employee complaint process. The superintendent did promise to answer all questions through that process. After I read the procedures for complaints, my response back to the district is they’ve already violated that process with their choice to ignore my multiple requests for answers because they are required by law to meet with me to address my concerns. I again offered HUSD the opportunity to surrender by forcing these questions upon county and/or state rather than answer them, then to withdraw obedience if we receive no answers, or Orwellian doublespeak such as forced unpaid leave is a “broader right” for employees. The district is required to respond in writing as to their positions by Friday April 8, 2022, which includes another Grievance that I’m required by contract to not discuss until decided. I followed-up again to include another Assistant Superintendent managing the complaint process to request that the district acknowledge they’ve violated my rights, then meet with me to finally answer all my questions regarding “health” “orders” in apparent violations of multiple and superior laws.
On April 1, HUSD’s HR Assistant Superintendent sent me an email claiming to answer a question I verbally asked at our March 25th Zoom meeting, then claimed, “The District feels it has reasonably and sufficiently responded to this request for information. Please consider this the final response to this matter.” As you’ve predicted, this public school district allegedly committed to uphold the highest academic professional standards:
- Invented a straw-man question I didn’t ask.
- Ignored my submitted written questions, some going back to September, 2020 with repeated requests for answers ~20+ times.
- “Answered” their own lie-created straw-man question, claimed they responded to my question, and asked me to shut-up: “The District feels it has reasonably and sufficiently responded to this request for information. Please consider this the final response to this matter.”
After my response to this lying Assistant Superintendent, I asked our teachers’ union president and CTA representative, “I'm curious: is HUSD usually this evil, unprofessional to repeatedly IGNORE written questions they are legally obligated to answer honestly, and soul-suckingly addicted to lying, OR is this unusual behavior for them?”
HUSD reneged on their timeline to respond to my four Grievances (I dropped one Grievance that HUSD began performing by reporting they had no updates to report upon), and responded late on April 18. By contract, I cannot report on those Grievances’ statuses until they are decided (amended on June 14, 2022 with HUSD’s decision to reject them all). I can report that the district claims my Complaints (distinct from Grievances) have all already been addressed because the Superintendent has repeatedly dictated to employees, students, and community that we must follow orders from the state. I used the superintendent’s reply to request the Assistant Superintendent managing due process of complaints, and the Complaint Manager, to join me in my questions receiving ethical answers beyond “just follow orders.” I sent these two further communication reminding that two students have been lied to since January 10 to receive an explanation with documentation how unvaxxed students could be segregated to “separate but equal” isolated “education” without evidence of their exposure to Covid through a “close contact” (within 6 feet for 15 minutes of a “positive” “test”).
Two days later, on Friday April 22, the superintendent emailed me to claim he is “the district.” This appears as an attempt to stop the Assistant Superintendent over Complaints and the Complaint Manager from exercising our mutual Oath to support and defend limited government under Constitutional laws by comparing his non-answers to my actual questions (Update 1) for any violations of Complaint due process and laws. I responded that he speaks for his office only, and that the purpose of our Oath is for anyone and all of us to review “orders” for obvious violations of law.
On April 25, I explicitly claimed whistleblower status to the Assistant Superintendent over Complaints and the Complaint Manager, and bcc’d the 11 parents and staff who had previously contacted me expressing support (Update 1, with one parent replying that she, too, had her Complaint ignored). I followed with two more emails and three phone messages that these two minions all refused response, despite these follow-up emails quoting Board policy requiring HUSD to educate students and staff on health policies (not obfuscate and lie to students/staff by refusing to answer direct questions), and that HUSD continues to refuse to provide the information they received from the state for medical and religious exemptions to experimental medical products. On April 29 (Update 2), I emailed HUSD Board members with final legal notice that their employee superintendent and managed administrators refuse to honor due process of Complaints, and are covering-up apparent illegal “health” “orders.” At this point I no longer mask their identities, as they should be fully accountable to the public after 20 months of documented lies. I consider this an excellent essay to explain and document the core of HUSD’s two-part Orwellian “argument” to employees, students, and community: “Just follow orders,” and consequences for disobedience are “broader rights” granted by the district to those receiving the consequences.
On May 5, 2022 my teachers’ union Board responded they are unlikely to support my Grievances to arbitration. I sent them the summary of indefensible district lies, crimes, and cover-ups, with questions of justice the union must accept (or be exposed as evil collaborators injecting children with poisonous “experiments”). We’ll meet via Zoom on May 17th. Our contract states that I’m to keep “all proceeding private,” but because I’m a whistleblower pointing out OBVIOUS crimes of proven deadly consequences who has been denied due process from the other parties in the contract, I must go to the public for any hope of justice. I assert legality from honoring the mutual Oath among HUSD, HEA, and me to support and defend limited government under our CA and US Constitutions. The USA and California are defined by our Constitutions, so without those limits coming first and foremost, our Oath has no meaning. Therefore, any conflict between our CBA and Oath must place our Constitutions superior to any CBA provision that would subvert them. Because I’ve abundantly demonstrated the prima facie-illegality of “health” “orders,” I am empowered by our Oath to take all reasonable actions to require official written explanations how such prima facie-illegal “health” “orders” are within the limits of law.
On May 22, I had yet to receive a decision from our teachers’ union Board, so I sent another email for clarifying choice that they must either stand for truth against OBVIOUS CTA and district lies, or bond with liars committing prima facie Crimes Against Humanity targeting children.
On May 26, HEA’s President emailed me to decline arbitration for all Grievances. This local teachers’ union, in communication with the state teachers’ union (CTA) therefore:
- Condone proven INVENTED “health” “orders” from districts that cannot be challenged,
- Allow school districts to ignore OBVIOUS questions from teachers, families, and students,
- Support district proven lies to “order” student and teacher segregation (if unvaxxed) despite inventing the “orders” to do so,
- Support school districts to refuse providing anyone with information about medical and religious exemptions to forced medical experiments on staff and children.
On June 14, 2022 I filed for retirement with request of settlement from HUSD for $500,000 as compensation for ending my career early, and for an openly hostile and harassing work environment. The email I sent to HUSD is an excellent summary of the two full school years of challenging my public school district’s prima facie-illegal “health” “orders” as an award-winning, and now retired, teacher.
On June 15, one of our involved HUSD parents “replied to all” with my April “Final legal notice” email to HUSD leadership to show everyone my 36-minute interview with The Healthy American leader, Peggy Hall (below). HR Assistant Superintendent Watts refused to answer my three requests to retrieve my personal belongings in my classroom after 38 years’ teaching, and after I reported this to our teachers’ union President and HHS Principal Seymour, she dictated “permission” for me to return to campus for one 99 degree late morning and afternoon (the hottest day in Hayward for the last two years).
After a month of reflection, my observations:
- HUSD, CA, and CTA “leaders” are script-readers following orders of a covert power source because their scripts are aligned, all refuse to answer the most BASIC and REQUIRED questions, obfuscate in tragic-comedy, and engage in Orwellian lies when they “answer” instead of evade questions (my conclusions about this “covert power structure”).
- My teacher colleagues lack the intellectual integrity and/or moral courage to stand for BASIC and REQUIRED facts when they are:
- “Ordered” to accept most of our students’ families are “non-essential” workers.
- “Required” to be shot with unlimited “medical experiments” or be segregated off campus despite their Title 21 freedom to freely decline.
- “Mandated” to wear masks indoors and outdoors (masks = another “medical experiment” with zero “official” data for outdoor use).
- Dictated to embrace school segregation for unvaxxed students and staff (despite zero “official” authority or “orders” to do so).
- My teacher colleagues’ “taking a knee” to “Covid” “orders” is continued demonstration of their inability to respond to:
- US military on-campus recruitment despite the evidence I provided that ongoing US military attacks are Orwellian illegal, with all branches of US military (and UC Berkeley and CSU East Bay’s Political Science Departments) refusing our school’s inquiry to explain legality (here, here).
- Monetary reform and public banking fully funding public education.
- Our retirement funding is criminal fraud because our required “investments” net less than 1% return, with Wall Street “experts” paid twice the net income they generate (and here).
- Government (so-called “public”) schools are necessary public propaganda for ongoing US rogue state empire. I wrote a 2016 12-part article series titled US Public Education: Bullshit to train stupefied work animals to explain, document, and prove this extraordinary factual assertion (and here, here).
- ~98% of the general population are defeated by “official” propaganda, so my teacher colleague responses are typical.
- Because our “leaders” are propagandists pushing for dictatorial control, and professional educators are incapable of resistance, humanity needs “friends in high places” for an option beyond work animals for psychopaths. My 9-part article series on American Revolution 2.0 at the end of this current events report is my overview that we have such assistance if we work to earn it.

to (attorney, case manager)
Happy Friday, (attorney, case manager)!
As (case manager) and I discussed, I've documented HUSD's tragic-comic responses to my reasonable and obvious questions since Sept. 2020. For a briefing, I recommend the summary section in the latest public update.
For a faster summary, below are the titles of recent episodes going back to the end of December. I now conclude HUSD is actively evading exposure of illegal policies, and my paid administrative leave is censorship to stop my shining light on prima facie-illegal "orders." HUSD will "investigate" until the end of the semester, I predict :)
I'm also very interested in (attorney’s) professional opinion of a separate case to sue HUSD for per se defamation I've completely documented, to motivate me into the earliest possible retirement, and likely much more I don't see as a non-lawyer.
I look forward to Zooming with (attorney) Monday at 3:00 PM,
Carl
Challenging our public school district’s obedience to county ‘health’ ‘orders’: After I publicly document district’s outdoor mask ‘requirement’ violates CDPH/CDC guidance of ‘optional,’ Principal reminds staff outdoor masks are ‘required.’ I reply to all with documentation (again) and ask principal to confirm facts, principal ignores facts + incites teachers to ‘attack the messenger’ over the next 10 hours! (44 of ?)
Assistant Superintendent REFUSES TO REPORT on call to county public health department how medical segregation is legal, CTA also REFUSES to respond, I email all I can reach that 2 Assistant Superintendents REFUSE to explain how ‘separate but equal’ school segregation is legal (43 of ?)
Assistant Superintendent lies to 2 segregated students and refuses my 3 requests for truth, so I email documentation to district/union leaderships/boards + my school’s teachers. Principal explodes into ad hominem! (42 of ?)
Principal refuses questions on ‘testing’ hypocrisy, Asst. Principal sees evidence of district lies and refuses to stand, two colleagues and I thank ‘Student 1’ for standing (41 of ?)
Two students challenge their ‘separate but equal’ school segregation ‘order’ for ‘isolated-public education’ to DESTROY district Orwellian doublespeak. Dr. King-spirited demonstration this week! (40 of ?)
District removes my committee’s 2-month censorship after conceding addressing lockdown’s doubled failure rate was ‘aligned with district learning goals,’ ~50 students/staff/parents demand district explain how suspension/expulsion/unpaid leave = ‘broader rights,’ district attempts further evasion from OBVIOUS questions (39 of ?)

Hey (attorney and case manager),
Great chatting with you today, Sister!
Attached are the documents we discussed:
- Jan. 17, 2022 email Superintendent (omitted) referenced with “You will be receiving by tomorrow (Monday) a separate communication about the issues you raise here.” The Monday communication was the order to not go to any HUSD property and attend the Zoom call placing me on paid administrative leave.
- The principal’s two attacks: a Jan. 12 email (you’ll get the grievance: page 13 for [principal’s] email) and Jan. 19 email chain he incited, and especially relevant after Jan. 12.
I’m at episode 46 in my documentation since Oct. 2020. The complete briefing is at the “summary” section of these public articles. Essentially, HUSD chose to censor me to evade these questions I asked Superintendent (omitted) just before being censored:
Solution: Have a recorded Zoom call with me to answer the following questions that HUSD refuses to answer.
Do you accept?
- HUSD has a policy of masks “at all times,” including outdoors. CDPH, CDC both state masks are optional outdoors. What is the documented authority HUSD has to “order” masks “at all times”?
- HUSD sent emails that students and staff must “quarantine” if “Exposed: In the same indoor space with a person who has COVID-19.” CDPH and CDC both define exposed as close contact (within 6 feet for 15 minutes). What is the documented authority HUSD has to “order” “in the same indoor space”?
- How is HUSD not in violation of Ed Code 49403 to “cooperate with the local health officer in measures” with masks outdoors and QU-segregation for “in the same indoor space”?
- HUSD claims compliance with federal law Title 21 rights because HUSD policy provides “broader rights.” How are HUSD consequences of removal from schools for students and employees, and unpaid leave for employees “broader rights” to Title 21 freedoms to decline EUAs?
- Because HUSD has refused to provide any authorized documents, and I do not find these terms anywhere, where did HUSD get the phrases “at all times” and “in the same indoor space”? Who is giving HUSD “orders” for these policies?
- HUSD QU-segregated students this week, but not me as an unvaxxed teacher. Why did HUSD make this choice to segregate students but not staff? How is this arbitrary choice legal?
Peace,
Carl

Update 2:
HR Assistant Superintendent managing my paid administrative leave claimed my 5 active Grievances against the district were “in abeyance” because “contractual issues to be resolved would fall within regular work duties.” She did not respond to my request to cite district authority to destroy due process with Grievances, despite my citations of all applicable contract language I could find and imagine that both gave no such authority, and reminded all of ongoing due process rights. Moreover, in reading that section of our CBA, I discovered HR has one contractual duty to me: an “updated progress report every five work days until resolution” that the district was ignoring. I responded sharply, including my union-appointed attorney, and union President + VP + CTA liaison. HR also continued silence to my repeated requests to schedule a Zoom meeting for the district’s answers to essential questions HUSD promised to answer; some questions going back to early October 2021.
This email chain begins with evidence the district is blocking my emails from home (they already blocked my school email account).

(Superintendent, HR Asst. Supt.) have apparently blocked my emails from home after removing my HUSD email account; (HR Asst. Supt.) in apparent violation of her Jan. 25 letter promising ability to contact her:
Your placement on administrative leave is not disciplinary. ...
During the term of this leave, you continue to retain your position, title and salary and are considered to be on duty during your regular working hours. ...
If you have any questions concerning this leave or this memorandum, please call me directly at (510) xxx-xxxx and email at omitted@omitted.k12.ca.us
I have left two voice messages to remove this block, as it takes me additional time to maneuver around it to conduct school business.
That said, this is what HUSD blocked, and how:
Also escalated to Level II given HUSD's REFUSAL to respond.
- Within ten (10) days of the grievant’s request for arbitration, the Association President and/or his/her designees, the Superintendent and the Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources, shall meet to resolve the grievance.
All will know all,

Those involved in upholding prima facie-illegal policies have a choice to face this momentum, or join us in the questions to withhold obedience until the questions are answered.

However, the grievance process for employees on administrative leave remain in abeyance, as contractual issues to be resolved would fall within regular work duties. While you are on leave should you need to contact the District regarding matters related to your leave we will respond in a prompt manner.

to (HR Asst. Supt., teachers’ union President, Principal, CTA liason)
(HR Asst. Supt.),
To emphasize: if (Superintendent) is having an "investigation" into something he fails to specifically cite that I wrote, please reject it. As I reminded, on our last Zoom call with (Superintendent) for a Level III Grievance where I contested his uncited censorship of my PLC (he refused responses to Level I and II), I interrupted (Superintendent’s) 5 attempts to allege his opinion about what I wrote was what I wrote. On the 6th attempt, he quickly scanned my PLC report only to confuse a factual claim I made with an opinion I held. If this episode is similar to the last for (Superintendent) to abandon all academic and professional standards of citation, please protect this regular teacher by closing the "investigation"!
All I've done since Sept. 2020 is ask OBVIOUS and essential questions, while citing the most authoritative government documents.
All I've received from HUSD is silence, the tragic-comic "separate but equal" QU-segregation of students and forced unpaid leave for staff are "broader rights" of our medical choices, and the only truthful answer from you, (HR Asst. Supt.), on Dec. 3 of "I don't know" how Title 21 rights can be destroyed. Of course, the one truthful answer was replaced by the two-paragraph "broader rights" argument from an anonymous attorney HUSD refuses contact for questions.
Attached is the Dec. 3 email I sent to you with a summation of our Zoom meeting that day, and the promised information you've failed to deliver for 53 days since that call, with previous written requests for the information HUSD received to administer medical and religious exemptions to experimental medical products beginning on October 11, 2021 (106 days ago).
Despite ongoing requests since, and amplified requests, (Superintendent) notified me yesterday regarding my Jan. 17 email, "You will be receiving by tomorrow (Monday) a separate communication about the issues you raise here. The email will also include communication protocols. In the meantime, please do not reply all to this email." That is also attached.
(Superintendent) seemingly concludes that removing a regular teacher during final exams is a more professional response than my proposal of a Zoom meeting to answer these questions, which I also have repeatedly asked of you, (HR Asst. Supt.):
- HUSD has a policy of masks “at all times,” including outdoors. CDPH, CDC both state masks are optional outdoors. What is the documented authority HUSD has to “order” masks “at all times”?
- HUSD sent emails that students and staff must “quarantine” if “Exposed: In the same indoor space with a person who has COVID-19.” CDPH and CDC both define exposed as close contact (within 6 feet for 15 minutes). What is the documented authority HUSD has to “order” “in the same indoor space”?
- How is HUSD not in violation of Ed Code 49403 to “cooperate with the local health officer in measures” with masks outdoors and QU-segregation for “in the same indoor space”?
- HUSD claims compliance with federal law Title 21 rights because HUSD policy provides “broader rights.” How are HUSD consequences of removal from schools for students and employees, and unpaid leave for employees “broader rights” to Title 21 freedoms to decline EUAs?
- Because HUSD has refused to provide any authorized documents, and I do not find these terms anywhere, where did HUSD get the phrases “at all times” and “in the same indoor space”? Who is giving HUSD “orders” for these policies?
- HUSD QU-segregated students this week, but not me as an unvaxxed teacher. Why did HUSD make this choice to segregate students but not staff? How is this arbitrary choice legal?
Be proud of your choices,

“Teachers are members of learning communities. Accomplished teachers participate actively in their learning communities to promote progress and achievement. They contribute to the effectiveness of the school by working collaboratively with other professionals on policy decisions, curriculum development, professional learning, school instructional programs, and other functions that are fundamental to the development of highly productive learning communities. They work collaboratively and creatively with families and the community, engaging them productively in the work of the school and cultivating students’ connections with the opportunities, resources, and diversity they afford.
Accomplished teachers can evaluate school progress and the allocation of school resources in light of their understanding of state and local educational objectives and their knowledge of student needs. They are knowledgeable about and can advocate for specialized school and community resources that can be engaged for their students’ benefit, and are skilled at employing such resources as needed.” ~ Foundation of National Board Certification for Teachers, Five Core Propositions (page 10)
(HR Asst. Supt.):
By the end of today’s workday by 5 PM, please:
- Cite HUSD's authority to destroy my contractual rights to Article 8 Grievances (“abeyance,” you claim) or explain where that policy came from if it does not exist in any applicable document. If HUSD has no such authority, issue a written apology stating:
- HUSD contrived “abeyance orders.”
- Where HUSD got this idea from.
- How long HUSD has been lying about this authority.
- State, correct, and apologize for anywhere else HUSD is contriving “orders,” such as “requiring” outdoor masks and QU-segregating students and staff in the “same indoor space” of a “positive” “test.”
- Affirm all contractual rights apply to those on paid administrative leave.
- Tentatively schedule a Zoom call to fulfil your two promises to answer our submitted questions, some ignored by HUSD for over 4 months (tentative to affirm HEA President [omitted’s] availability). Please note:
- As HUSD HR Assistant Superintendent, you promised HEA President (omitted) and me answers to my submitted questions over two months ago on our Dec. 3 Zoom call.
- As HUSD HR Assistant Superintendent, you repeated your promise to answer all questions on our Jan. 25 Zoom call with HEA President (omitted) and me.
- Our contractual agreement requires your answers: ARTICLE 5 SUPPORT OF AGREEMENT: The District and the Association agree that it is to their mutual benefit to encourage the resolution of differences through the meet and negotiation process.
- Provide HEA President (omitted) and me an administrative leave “updated progress report every five work days until resolution.” HUSD is late from their Feb. 1 deadline, and also missed the Feb. 8 deadline for a 2nd report. Please note our contractual agreement in ARTICLE 11 LEAVES OF ABSENCE. T. Administrative Leave (below). Please include in your report a written apology with explanation how/why you failed to comply with our agreement.
I remind that HUSD has chosen to refuse my perfectly reasonable remedy since September 2020: forward unanswerable questions to county and/or state level, with unanswered questions requiring us by mutual Oath to withdraw consent.
HUSD will reject my reasonable, obvious, and Oath-required solution to escalate questions or withdraw compliance to government “orders” without reasonable citation of authority. Instead, HUSD will continue:
- Attempted censorship of Oath-required questions.
- Refusals to answer obvious questions, including from two HHS students to whom Assistant Superintendent (omitted) reneged on her promise to call Alameda County Public Health Department and report by Jan. 10. We all deserve to know who she talked with, what documents were referenced, and what was discussed concerning the students’ question how HUSD/HHS can “order” segregation for 10 days without evidence of close contact (within 6 feet for 15 minutes), and in violation of stated CDPH guidance. We should all wonder why (Asst. Supt.) has not reported. I assume it’s because such a report confirms HUSD illegal “health” “orders” that must be rescinded.
- Harming HHS’ most-concentrated at-risk-to-graduate students by removing their teacher over another un-cited “concern” of my good-faith professionalism. I teach first-year algebra and conceptual geometry to the highest percentage of at-risk students at HHS in any regular classroom as measured by credits required to graduate. On peer-reviewed and approved tests, my students average under 10% failure rate compared with ~50% of all other first-year algebra classes at HHS and HUSD (a reason two Los Angeles Mayors recognized my teaching as among the very best in Central L.A.: a population of ~10,000 teachers).
- After HUSD ongoing censorship, refusals to answer required questions from staff, students, and community members, HUSD Principal (omitted) started and incited among teachers active defamatory attacks. (Principal) emailed all HHS staff that my asking questions “attacks” HUSD personnel, is “disgusting,” these questions “indoctrinate students,” and overall I am the lowest “educator” this principal has ever seen in his 16 years in the profession. In conclusion, (Principal) claimed my questions and defense of two students denied answers and lied-to by Assistant Superintendent (omitted) to provide answers are “unnecessary attacks” so disgusting that Principal (Principal) informed teachers how to block all emails from me for any work communication. (Principal)/HUSD has yet to respond to my Jan. 12 Grievance, yet I am the one under paid administrative leave to “investigate.”
I hope you prove me wrong, (HR Asst. Supt.).
Only the truth will set you free.

Documentation for HUSD to not censor or “investigate” the messenger, but to encourage students to engage broadly with the most impactful policy issue in their personal history of public education:
T. Administrative Leave
Administrative Leave, with the exception of mandatory unpaid leave as defined by the Education Code, is defined as a paid leave of absence. Such leave must be for just cause and with due process. Unit members may only be placed on Administrative Leave by the Superintendent or Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources. HEA shall be notified immediately when a unit member is placed on Administrative Leave. Unit members on Administrative Leave will not be required to stay at their regular worksite. The Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources will supply a written report within five days of the incident to HEA and the unit member and continue to supply an updated progress report every five work days until resolution.
“[CA public school students] will learn that all citizens deserve equal treatment under the law, safeguarded from arbitrary or discriminatory treatment by the government. …Students will examine both the constitutional basis for and current examples of the fact that members of the government are themselves subject to the law… Students learn that democracies depend on an actively engaged citizenry—individuals who fully participate in the responsibilities of citizenship (such as voting, serving in the military, or regular public service)— for their long-term survival. … Students may also define and identify illegitimate power and explore how dictators have gained and held onto office. The fundamental components that typically distinguish democracies from dictatorships include control of the media, lack of political and personal freedoms, corruption of public officials, lack of governmental transparency, and the lack of citizens’ access to changing the government. Case studies should be included in this unit in order to consider the economic, social, and political conditions that often give rise to tyranny. Does such a government rest on the consent of the governed? Do citizens have rights that the state must respect; if so, what are they? What is the role of civil dissent, and when is it necessary?” ~ California History-Social Science Framework, Chapter 17: Principles of American Democracy (pages 434, 435, 437, 451, with bold added)
“Students need to know their rights and responsibilities as American citizens and have both the capacity and willingness to participate in a democratic system of government. Educators want students to understand the meaning of the Constitution as a social contract that defines a democratic government and guarantees individual rights. Educators want them to respect the right of others to have different beliefs and ideas. Students need to take an active role as citizens and know how to work for change in a democratic society. The value, the importance, and the fragility of democratic institutions must be understood by all students. Only a small fraction of the world’s population now or in the past has been fortunate enough to live under a democratic form of government, and students need to understand the conditions that encourage democracy to prosper.” ~ California History-Social Science Framework, pages 14-15 (bold added)
I am modeling the learning we expect from all our students. When will my HUSD colleagues stand with me?
“These democratic values should be taught in the classroom, in the curriculum, and in daily life outside school. Teachers are encouraged to have students use the community to gather information regarding public issues and become familiar with individuals and organizations involved in public affairs. … Whenever possible, opportunities should be available for participation and for reflection on the responsibilities of citizens in a free society.
…Educators want students to perceive the complexity of social, economic, and political problems. They want them to be able to both comprehend and evaluate an argument and develop their own interpretations supported by relevant evidence. Educators want them to have the ability to differentiate between what is important and what is not. Students need to know their rights and responsibilities as American citizens and have both the capacity and willingness to participate in a democratic system of government. Educators want students to understand the meaning of the Constitution as a social contract that defines a democratic government and guarantees individual rights. Educators want them to respect the right of others to have different beliefs and ideas. Students need to take an active role as citizens and know how to work for change in a democratic society. The value, the importance, and the fragility of democratic institutions must be understood by all students. Only a small fraction of the world’s population now or in the past has been fortunate enough to live under a democratic form of government, and students need to understand the conditions that encourage democracy to prosper. By developing a keen sense of ethics and citizenship, students develop respect for all persons as equals regardless of ethnicity, nationality, gender identity, sexual orientation, and beliefs. Educators want students to care deeply about the quality of life in their community, the nation, and their world. The desire of educators is to have students recognize their responsibility as members of the global community to participate ethically and with humanity in their interactions with various nations, cultures, and peoples.” ~ (pages 14-15, California History-Social Science Framework)

to (HR Asst. Supt., attorney + legal case manager, teachers’ union President + VP)
(Teachers’ union President and attorney) (I'm intentionally including [HR Asst. Supt.]):
Please inform me of my options for (HR Asst. Supt.)/HUSD's refusal to:
- Cite HUSD's authority to destroy my contractual rights to Article 8 Grievances (“abeyance,” you claim) or explain where that policy came from if it does not exist in any applicable document. If HUSD has no such authority, issue a written apology stating:
- HUSD contrived “abeyance orders.”
- Where HUSD got this idea from.
- How long HUSD has been lying about this authority.
- State, correct, and apologize for anywhere else HUSD is contriving “orders,” such as “requiring” outdoor masks and QU-segregating students and staff in the “same indoor space” of a “positive” “test.”
- Affirm all contractual rights apply to those on paid administrative leave.
- Tentatively schedule a Zoom call to fulfil your two promises to answer our submitted questions, some ignored by HUSD for over 4 months (tentative to affirm HEA President [omitted’s] availability). Please note:
- As HUSD HR Assistant Superintendent, you promised HEA President (omitted) and me answers to my submitted questions over two months ago on our Dec. 3 Zoom call.
- As HUSD HR Assistant Superintendent, you repeated your promise to answer all questions on our Jan. 25 Zoom call with HEA President (omitted) and me.
- Our contractual agreement requires your answers: ARTICLE 5 SUPPORT OF AGREEMENT: The District and the Association agree that it is to their mutual benefit to encourage the resolution of differences through the meet and negotiation process.
- Provide HEA President (omitted) and me an administrative leave “updated progress report every five work days until resolution.” HUSD is late from their Feb. 1 deadline, and also missed the Feb. 8 deadline for a 2nd report. Please note our contractual agreement in ARTICLE 11 LEAVES OF ABSENCE. T. Administrative Leave (below). Please include in your report a written apology with explanation how/why you failed to comply with our agreement.
It's now looking like my paid administrative leave is being used as retaliation to avoid 5 active Grievances. The Grievances are the questions HUSD refuses to answer. The email that triggered Wayne to place me on leave asked the question for my colleagues to consider that if, and only if, HUSD refuses to answer basic, obvious, and required questions: Is this fraud?
If HUSD's policies aren't fraudulent, they'd just answer the questions, right?
But what would HUSD do if they knew their "health orders" were fraudulent just as my unanswerable questions seem to demonstrate? Silence the messenger? Destroy or at least delay the Grievances by saying they're magically "in abeyance" despite nothing like that in our contract:
ARTICLE 11 LEAVES OF ABSENCE
T. Administrative Leave
Administrative Leave, with the exception of mandatory unpaid leave as defined by the Education Code, is defined as a paid leave of absence. Such leave must be for just cause and with due process. Unit members may only be placed on Administrative Leave by the Superintendent or Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources. HEA shall be notified immediately when a unit member is placed on Administrative Leave. Unit members on Administrative Leave will not be required to stay at their regular worksite. The Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources will supply a written report within five days of the incident to HEA and the unit member and continue to supply an updated progress report every five work days until resolution.
ARTICLE 8 GRIEVANCE PROCEDURE
A. Definitions
- Grievance – A grievance is a claim regarding the interpretations or application of this Agreement.
- Grievant – A grievant may be the Association or any unit member of the District.
- Day – A day, for the purpose of this Section, is any day in which the District offices are open.
B. Level I
- When a unit member has a grievance, the unit member shall first discuss the matter in an informal conference with the administrator with immediate administrative responsibilities for the position to which the unit member is assigned.
And from my Jan. 25 official letter being put on leave:
Your placement on administrative leave is not disciplinary. ...
During the term of this leave, you continue to retain your position, title and salary and are considered to be on duty during your regular working hours. ...
If you have any questions concerning this leave or this memorandum, please call me directly at (510) xxx-xxxx and email at omitted@omitted.k12.ca.us
Nobody is going to uphold that "paid administrative leave" can be used by employers to destroy employees' due process rights to resolve a complaint against the employer.
(HR Asst. Supt.) is now my "administrator with immediate administrative responsibilities for the position (paid administrative leave) to which the unit member is assigned." I've asked (HR Asst. Supt.) three times, and I'll ask a 4th here: Explain and cite your claim that my contractual right to resolve 5 Grievances against the district can be "in abeyance" if the district dictates the employee to paid administrative leave for an "investigation."
With all respect, what does it mean when (HR Asst. Supt.) violates her contractual promise to provide us with the one and only thing she's contractually obligated to provide, and she willfully doesn't do it (she knows, or is negligent), doesn't acknowledge she didn't do it, and I have to point it out to her after having read that part of the contract for the first time???
The Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources will... continue to supply an updated progress report every five work days until resolution.
What do you see, (teachers’ union President and attorney)?
Ready, willing, and able for my strongest move for truth, justice, and the American way of limited government defending unalienable rights,
and (HR Asst. Supt.), you can join our side if you just let us know,
Carl

And further evidence my leave is retaliation for my Grievances is that I promised (Superintendent) and the following recipients one day before my notification to no longer report for work that I would share my two Jan. 23 Grievances with staff with invitation to join, and that when my 26 unvaxxed and apparently all healthy students returned from their latest "separate but equal" isolated segregation on Jan. 31 (22% of my total enrolled students), I would inform them of their option to file complaints against the district with the same reasoning in my Grievances. Some of my students have been segregated 4 times so far this school year.
I'd like specific evidence of anything I did against district policies (with full citations) requiring an "investigation," or for the investigation to be immediately dropped.
This is especially appropriate in context of (Supt.’s) previous censorship of the committee I chair without citation of anything I did, and only backing down after his silence to two levels of Grievances was forced by (teachers’ union President) into a Zoom call with (HR Asst. Supt., teachers’ union President), and me where (Supt.) still had nothing to cite, and claimed my PLC report he targeted was "unclear" it was about school improvement despite my citing in the opening paragraph the worst decline in student academic performance in district history directly connected to school policies (doubled failure rate during lockout). I literally had to point that out to (Supt.) (the first paragraph had a 10th grade reading level averaged from 5 online tests, btw).
(HR Asst. Supt.) has already violated her contractual obligation for a report twice, followed by her silence, so whatever is happening in this "investigation" is outside our contract in at least one provable area, with a second being (HR Asst. Supt.’s) unsubstantiated claim that the district can destroy due process for active Grievances by declaring "an investigation" into anyone with a pesky Grievance, and especially someone promising to share the Grievance with others, and with history of (Supt.) censoring me without citation nor rational and cited reason just the month prior to (Supt.’s) choice to "investigate" me again.
Happy Friday,
Carl

to (Superintendent, HR Asst. Supt., Principal, teachers’ union President + VP, HHS Admin team, Health Director)
Dear Colleagues,
I am inviting staff to join this Grievance, and for students and families to file complaints.
Those involved in upholding prima facie-illegal policies have a choice to face this momentum, or join us in the questions to withhold obedience until the questions are answered. If essential questions are not answered, or given Orwellian responses that segregation and unpaid leave are "broader rights," then withdraw cooperation.
Choose wisely.

“While you are on leave should you need to contact the District regarding matters related to your leave we will respond in a prompt manner.”
~ (omitted), HUSD Assistant Superintendent, Human Resources, Feb. 9, 2022 email
(HR Asst. Supt.):
Please respond “in a prompt manner” as you promised:

Please note our contractual agreement in ARTICLE 11 LEAVES OF ABSENCE. T. Administrative Leave (below). Please include in your report a written apology with explanation how/why you failed to comply with our agreement.
