That day they sent me home, suspended with pay, pending investigation because parents are gonna call.
Two days later, they call me back out to the district office.
Y'all, and I was a nervous wreck anyways, because just talking about it, I've never been in trouble like that before with these folks ever.
They called me back to the district office, and they came to a decision and said, Mr. Price, we just can't get past this.
I just can't get past why you chose to read this book.
It was poor professional judgment, and because of which, we're terminating your contract effective immediately.
I'm a dad of kids with autism.
We don't sleep at night.
We just worry with our eyes closed on a normal day.
How am I going to pay for therapy, medicine, bills, luxuries like food, lights, and water?
They told me, you could sign this resignation and we can part ways, or you go home and think about it and decide if you want to appeal this, you'll have to find an attorney and we can start an appeal process.
And they left me in the room.
I told my wife what had happened.
And she said, we've been married 21 years.
If you were wrong, I would tell you you were wrong.
So you're not signing that resignation.
