Florida: Divided Alachua County school board votes to fire controversial superintendent

News4JAX: GAINESVILLE, Fla. – The Alachua County School Board on Tuesday night voted 3-2 to fire controversial superintendent Dr. Carlee Simon. Her termination was effective Wednesday.

“I think Dr. Simon is a great speaker, a gifted writer, but things are not working for our school system and it takes more than talk to make it work,” said Robert Hyatt Alachua County School Board Chair.

During her tenure, Simon gained national exposure after she was outspoken about the need for student mask mandates despite Gov. Ron DeSantis’ executive order barring mask mandates at schools in Florida. She appeared on The Morning Show and wrote an op-ed in the Washington Post defending her stance on masks.
