and Commissioner ISD v. Porter, et. Al., 2!" #$ !%&""'2 at('.+ school

district may not require information in a lesson plan “that is neither taught

to students nor describes the activities that will be used to teach the

subject matter.” Id.

II. e!as +ttorney eneral issued -pinion o. +/0101 dated 2une $&, 100&.

he +ttorney eneral construed section 11.03$1 to prohibit a school district

from bringing a disciplinary proceeding against a professional employee for

the use of … to the e!tent justified under Section 4.%1 of the 5enal #ode

where the professional employee “reasonably believes the force is necessary

“to enforce compliance with a proper command issued” to control, train, or

educate the child. See Alvarado ISD vs. )a* +arper . he 5etitioner was

enforcing compliance with proper commands, by using verbal force to control

his students.

III. +lthough probationary teachers have little ground to stand on when

terminations take place, allegations such as students running around or fast

food remains in the classroom do not meet )good cause* for probationary

terminations under e!as "ducation #ode 1$.$0&'a(,ero, violating condition

eleven of 5etitioners contract, see "!hibit -. #ondition eleven of

5etitioner*s contract does contend that 6the board*s7 decision is final and

cannot be appealed, but 5etitioner filed his original grievance 6b7efore he

was ever notified of his dismissal from 6the school7, 6b7efore he was ever

placed on administrative leave, and 6b7efore his contract was ever terminated.

+nd since 5etitioner vacated 6the district7 involuntarily and is currently

seeking 6i7mmediate reinstatement, this petition to the commissioner is

6n7either void, or hereby moot.
