Dear Governor Ige,
All of these demands are in alignment with your stated vision for Hawai'i: "To have a state government that is honest, transparent and responsive to its citizens."
How can we teach our keiki to:
Be Honest, Take Responsibility and Be Accountable,
when those at VERY TOP OF THE HAWAI'I DEPT. OF EDUCATION DO THE OPPOSITE?
Please support the changes that this petition advocates.
THE SHORT VERSION
----------------------------------------------------
1. INVESTIGATE misconduct
2. TERMINATE those responsible
3. DUE PROCESS RIGHTS for all DOE employees
4. SIGN OFFS BY DOE EXECUTIVES FOR AG REPRESENTATION
5. ANNUAL AUDITS OF SUBSTITUTE/NON-UNION PERSONNEL ACTIONS
6. ABOLISH THE USE OF NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENTS BY THE DOE
TO COVER-UP MISCONDUCT
7. MANDATORY LEGISLATIVE APPROVAL FOR DOE LEGAL SETTLEMENTS
Mahalo for supporting this petition.

THE LONG VERSION
----------------------------------------------
The Board of the DOE have shown themselves to be incapable of policing their own.
An independent external investigation needs to be conducted to investigate:
4. Statistically significant evidence of interferece and bias in the courts
The Principal that knowingly lied about me using force against children needs to be terminated.
The remaining individuals (VP and Complex HR) should be subject to demotions and precluded from having authority over personnel decisions for a reasonable period. (2 years)
Substitute teachers and all non-Union employees should be guaranteed due process rights and full investigations when accused of a criminal act. i.e.
To help prevent misrepresentations to the Attorney General's Office, and thereby illegal representation:
should have to personally sign-off (a la Dodd-Frank), in writing, that the employees in question did not "act within the scope of their duties and responsibilities of employment", as defined by the DOE Code of Conduct and DOE policies. Not some other nebulous self-serving definition.
There needs to be an annual audit of:
In the case of # 2, it is evident that this is something that is used by Complex HR to "discourage" substitutes from continuing working at the DOE.
This practice has to stop.
Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) are instruments that have been used by the likes of Harvey Weinstein and Donald Trump to keep misconduct out of the public eye, and to prevent people from EVER talking about them. Or, they can be sued.
These are used extensively by the DOE in settling cases.
The use of NDA's by the DOE to hide misconduct NEEDS TO BE UNEQUIVOCALLY ABOLISHED.
All DOE employees that have been effectively "shut-up" by NDAs need to be retroactively released from the provisions of any extant DOE NDAs.
As it stands now, the DOE settles claims without going through the legislative appropriation process.
This raises serious questions:
1. How many settlements have there been?
2. How frequent were they?
3. What has the cost been?
4. If not appropriated by the legislature, what funds were used to settle them?
5. Why weren't they subject to appropriation?
