Students protested on the steps of IISD headquarters on Monday, April 18 before telling board members they don’t feel safe in school during the public comment portion of the board meeting. (David Taffet/Dallas Voice) Former students and other community members attended an Irving ISD meeting on Monday evening, April 18, to support English teacher Rachel Stonecipher.

The group of 35 supporters included Texas state Rep. terry Meza and Resource Center’s Rafael McDonnell. Stonecipher was removed from her class early in the school year, because she displayed a Safe Space sticker on her classroom door.

The former MacArthur H.S. teacher is now assigned to the district’s disciplinary high school and expects to be terminated at the end of the school year.
