Last June, I was hired as the new 7th-grade teacher at Davis Waldorf School.
As proven by the reports written by mentor and observers, I did well, with a lot of passion and enthusiasm, even if I didn't get the help of a Waldorf mentor before January.
However, at the beginning of February, after I tried the last chance action to stop the unhealthy misbehavior of two students, the school decided that I was "not a good fit for the class" and asked me to take my paternity leave earlier than scheduled and to give my resignation letter when I return.
Now, without any other explained reason, and contrary to our February meeting agreement, the school administration wants to take my daughters away from their beloved school, teachers, and classmates.
It is their right according to the law and our school contracts but is it the just and moral way to treat some three and five years old children?
If you think like me that we must save the children from adults discords, please sign this petition and support my request to have my daughters staying at Davis Waldorf School.
Warmly,
David Gomes
