Mr. Mosley, a beloved principal in San Jose, CA, was recently dismissed from his position following an altercation with a student. This incident has deeply affected our community and we believe that the decision to fire him was unjust.

Mr. Mosley is known for his dedication to teaching and his unwavering commitment to the students he serves. His dismissal has left a void in our school system that cannot be easily filled.

The incident leading to Mr. Mosley's dismissal involved an altercation with a student - an unfortunate event that we believe should have been handled differently by the school administration. It is important to note that teachers are often placed in challenging situations where they must act quickly for their own safety and the safety of others.

According to data from the U.S Department of Education, during 2015-16 academic year around 5.8% of public schools reported serious violent incidents such as physical attacks or fights (National Center for Education Statistics). This statistic underscores the difficult circumstances educators like Mr.Mosley sometimes face.

We urge you to consider this context and reevaluate your decision regarding Mr.Mosley's employment status. We firmly believe in second chances and learning from our mistakes - values we hope are shared by our educational institutions as well.

Please sign this petition if you support reinstating Mr.Mosley back into his principal position where he can continue making positive impacts on students' lives.
