BREAKING: DeSantis suspends school board members for 'incompetence, neglect of duty' over Parkland shooting

On Friday, Governor Ron DeSantis announced that he would be suspending four members of the Broward County School Board for their "incompetence, neglect of duty, and misuse of authority" at Marjory Stonemason Douglass High School.

In a press release, the governor’s office stated that Patricia Good, Donna Korn, Ann Murray and Laurie Rich Levinson had been suspended following the recommendations of the Twentieth Statewide Grand Jury. DeSantis has been particularly active in education, going as far as endorsing school board members in their races across the state, and enacting laws on curriculum transparency and parental rights.

"Even four years after the events of February 14, 2018, the final report of the Grand Jury found that a safety-related alarm that could have possibly saved lives at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School 'was and is such a low priority that it remains uninstalled at multiple schools,’ and 'students continue to be educated in unsafe, aging, decrepit, moldy buildings that were supposed to have been renovated years ago,’" the press release states.
