Remove superintendent Dena Kiouses from Gorman Learning Center
The Issue
When our children's well-being is compromised, we must act with urgency. Over the past months, many parents, teachers, and students have expressed grave concerns about the leadership of our current superintendent. Her actions and decisions have not only failed to serve the best interests of our children but have also directly impacted their emotional, physical, and mental well-being.
Multiple instances of power abuse have been reported, where the superintendent has made unilateral decisions without consulting educators or parents, leading to detrimental effects on the quality of education and school climate. For example, a sudden decrease in support staff and extracurricular activities has drastically limited the opportunities for students to grow and thrive in a safe and nurturing environment.
Additionally, her lack of transparency in handling school funds and resources has raised significant alarms. This mismanagement further underscores the urgent need for responsible leadership.
We believe that every child deserves an education administered by leaders who are dedicated to fostering a positive, inclusive, and supportive atmosphere. Our demand is simple yet crucial: the removal of the current superintendent and the appointment of a leader who prioritizes the welfare of our students and embodies the principles of integrity, transparency, and cooperation.
Together, we can reclaim the future of our schools and ensure that our children receive the education they deserve, free from the harmful impacts of mismanagement and abuse of power.
Join us in this critical effort to protect and empower our students. Please sign this petition to urge Redlands Unified School Board to take immediate action and appoint a superintendent who truly has the best interests of our children at heart.
