This afternoon on FB a bunch of people had a few things to say about her and names were named, but I'll leave that out. The parents of some kids who attend the elementary shared their thoughts and much of it is based on reports from students who have observed this strange behavior going on at the school. They said that the lady who hugs too much basically stalks certain kids and goes out of her way to hug, squeeze, and poke them. She has a small group of favorites, but she seems to be particularly obsessed with a little blond boy. The students who have seen all this going on also said that they are quite sure that the superintendent is a perv since he allows this stuff to go on. A few concerns about COVID were mentioned, but mostly people seemed surprised that a teacher was allowed to hug kids in such an intimate manner and that the superintendent not only allows it, but seems to get off on it!
Obviously this lady cares more about her own perverted gratification than the health, safety, and welfare of the children at the school! She should be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail! There's no place for a person like this in any kind of situation involving children. The thought that she was given a leadership position at the school despite her complete lack of qualifications indicates to me that there is something totally dysfunctional going on at the school. The county needs to come in and kick the clowns and their comrades out!

Whether the schools in Ridgecrest have room for more students, I don't know. But parents should have the right to ensure their children get a good education and they shouldn't be held hostage by a bunch of idiots running things in a small town in the middle of the desert. I'd be surprised if in all the schools in Ridgecrest there are as many uncredentialed teachers as there are in Trona. The name of this thread describes perfectly what's going on in Trona.

Do the notices go out to just the parents of kids who are in classrooms with unqualified teachers or do all parents get a list of all the teachers who are unqualified? What I've heard is that the teachers for FIRST, SECOND, FOURTH, and FIFTH grades are currently unqualified. Also the K-12 Coordinator is not fully credentialed. I've heard some vague claims about teachers at the high school, but it sounds like over half of the teachers at the elementary are not qualified and some of them are far from qualified.
So the info I have is that the two teachers who retired were hired during the 1980s. Both were fed up with Dr. Airhead and the moronic school board is what I was told. The second grade teacher (who not only had a credential to teach elementary school, but also had a reading specialist certification) took a job with Sierra Sands and the fifth grade teacher took a job with the charter school in Ridgecrest. It would be in the best interest of students to commute to Ridgecrest if at all possible. A bus should be provided for those who would like to do so. It's criminal what the idiots in charge have done to the schools in Trona during the past couple years!

Obviously, a very large portion of the staff is unqualified, under-qualified, inexperienced, and/or ineffective, and so it makes sense to make arrangements for students to have the option of attending a school which can deliver a quality education. Providing transportation to Ridgecrest for those who wish to have a quality educational experience not only makes sense, but it seems like the ethical thing to do under these circumstances. I've heard that the school board wants to build a new high school, but that's obviously a waste of money. If they can't even find qualified teachers to teach, then what's the point of having a new facility!
