Teachers showed up at the Madison Metropolitan School District board meeting Wednesday night to defend their fired principal.
The actual reason Jeffrey Copeland lost his job hasn’t been made public.
The teachers from Ray F. Sennett Middle School say Copeland changed the culture of the school for the better in just eight days before he was put on administrative leave.
Teacher after teacher shared emotional stories of the impact they say he had.
Copeland has 30 days to file a grievance to start the reinstatement process.
