The Dallas fourth grade teacher suspended because of an email sent to a school board member will be back in class Wednesday.
Joseph Drake sent an email to Board Member Edwin Flores expressing anger over the Board’s vote to lengthen the teacher workday by 45 “unpaid” minutes. Dr. Flores forwarded the email to administrators who put Drake on paid leave for “alleged misconduct.”
Rena Honea is president of the largest Dallas teacher-group, the Alliance-AFT. She’s pleased with Drake’s reinstatement.
Honea: It was always the hope that the District would do the right thing. I think they needed to understand it was just the frustration and the things that had built up over the past couple of years. And that maybe this is something that they really need to pay closer attention to is our hope.
Honea says morale among teachers is the lowest she’s seen it.
The District declined comment on Drake’s status.

No Take-Off For Fort Worth Aviation History Exhibit
The Fort Worth City Council is grounding plans for a “traveling aviation exhibit”, and hoping to recoup the three million dollars already invested.
The Council refused to accept the exhibit assets as collateral for the loan to the Fort Worth Air and Space Museum Foundation. Council members also rejected plans to spend half-a-million-dollars to maintain and market the exhibit at the Museum of Science and History.
Mayor Betsy Price says educating people about the rich history of aviation in Fort Worth is important, but not practical for the city’s limited budget.
Price: I simply can’t make the numbers work. From the time I saw this pop up on the agenda, I cannot make the numbers work on this. And I have struggled for years with why we cannot get private business to step up on the aviation piece.
The Foundation used nearly all of the three million to launch the exhibit. With no money to market it, the exhibit is now in storage. City officials are looking at alternative plans, including liquidation, to recover costs.
