"Duval County Schools Investigated for Misconduct Reporting and Reassigns Supervisor"

Duval County Public Schools has reassigned Reginald Johnson, the supervisor of its professional standards office, pending a professional standards investigation. The district did not disclose the reason for the move, but Johnson's office oversees keeping discipline records, advising administrators on how to handle misconduct situations, investigating employee misconduct, and serving as the main point of contact with state agencies. The move comes after the state's commissioner of education threatened to slash the superintendent's salary for failing to report 50 cases to the state's Office of Professional Practices. School Board members have called for a meeting to discuss concerns resulting from recent events at Douglas Anderson School of the Arts and mandatory reporting requirements.
