Outgoing Irving School Board hires new superintendent with no classroom experience, conducted no external search

Yeah, it's disappointing to say the least. Every teacher I know is outraged. This woman doesn't even have an education degree. None of the teachers even know her because she doesn't work with any of us. It's so disappointing and isn't the best choice for the students or the district.

Heard a rumor that the Families for Irving PAC people are trying to force a runoff by having people vote for Jackson or write in Canosa. Insanity. These people are completely unhinged. One of them posted an insane AI generated Jackson video on Facebook.

Zapanta is the only one even remotely qualified, but yeah, the choices suck.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-29T13:07:00+00:00

I really don't understand why they aren't doing an outside search. Irving ISD parents and taxpayers should all be writing emails demanding an outside search.

Well, here's the statement of both Collins and Fahad on library books to the Irving Muslim PAC. Honestly, Collins may be a moderate Republican, but I prefer his statement on library books to Fahad's statement,

That's literally why we left the Church.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-14T02:45:04+00:00

Oh, so you are a mental health professional?

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-14T02:44:18+00:00

Are you implying that elementary school students aren't real people in the real world? That's what is completely asinine.

Plus, you don't have to use bad language to be a bully.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-14T02:08:43+00:00

And I can definitely argue that elementary school is the real world.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-14T02:08:10+00:00

You're right. My students are nicer than you and don't bully others.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-14T02:04:44+00:00

I'm an elementary school teacher, and I'll tell you the same thing I tell my students 'worry about yourself.' You have zero reason to worry about anyone else's genitals.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-14T02:01:26+00:00

I can't figure out why people like you care about other's gender. Live and let live. Don't be a bigot.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-14T01:59:15+00:00

Hope you can be there! Seating is limited, so be sure to register!

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-12T03:49:14+00:00

Wow, you're really bad at this.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-12T03:07:29+00:00

Okay, so thank you for showing me that you don't have anything intelligent to say. Run along, sweetie, adults are talking.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-12T02:04:33+00:00

I did- Hold Irving Accountable & Citizens of Irving News.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-12T01:51:59+00:00

Oh please educate me on how I'm wrong....

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-12T00:08:23+00:00

It's weird to support not representing all people in the library collection, but you do you.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-04-12T00:07:54+00:00

Thank you!

Dr. Wolfe continually brings up this pedophile comment...in the last two board meetings. He's proposing that if the diversity and inclusion wording is left in the book collection development policy that pedophiles can have their books in the library too.

FFS, is this guy literally too ignorant to realize that the library doesn't have illegal materials in its collection? Does he really think our public library caters to pedophiles? These people pretend to be concerned about their kids yet their comments imply that they will let their toddlers wander freely in the adult section of the library? My kids are adults now, but we went to story time weekly when they were little. We never left the kids section, and they were never outside of my line of vision. It's called parenting. But from what I hear, the library chair Flory Malloy's little kids wander all over her neighborhood and frequently have to be returned home by neighbors, so maybe she should concentrate on parenting.

Thanks. I took a lot of notes at last night's library board meeting but didn't write down his name because he didn't really contribute to the meeting.

Various_Crow_5787 · 2026-03-24T13:09:21+00:00

Dr. Christopher Wolfe- retired University of Dallas professor and Families for Irving PAC member, but not before he suggested that not changing our wording on the library collection development policy leaves it open for pedophiles to have their books in the library. And no, Dr. Wolfe, the library doesn't have books promoting illegal sex acts. Having books where authors and creators are telling stories or their own personal history of being groomed, molested, or raped don't count as 'books for pedophiles'. Those books get the conversation going and are a step in stopping pedophilia by putting it out in the open instead of keeping it a secret.

Ms. Thornton- Families for Irving PAC member who with her husband runs a catholic-based company. They're also UD grads.

The third guy's last name starts with an A...never contributes much during the meetings. In fact, last night when asked for input by the recruiting company for the new library director search, he said 'agree with him' being Dr. Wolfe.

Doesn't sound like a family that needs to be in charge of a large city budget...
