KQED has teamed up with ProPublica to report on how California handles cases of alleged teacher misconduct.
The state’s Commission on Teacher Credentialing releases few details about cases, leaving the public largely in the dark. From our interviews with former commission members and students, as well as a review of records, we found dozens of cases in which the state did not revoke teachers’ licenses after findings of sexual misconduct.
We know there are other issues with this system, and we need your help to get a full picture. We want to hear about your experience with the disciplinary process, whether you’re a student, parent, teacher, administrator or credentialing commission member, or you have other insight. Your perspective will help guide our reporting, ensuring we understand the issues from all sides.
You can fill out a brief form or contact KQED reporter Holly McDede on Signal at hollymcdede.68 or via email at [email protected].
We take your privacy seriously and will contact you if we wish to publish any part of your story.
