356A two - volume Transcript was filed with DOAH on November 18,
3682014. Respondent filed h er Proposed Recommended Order on
377November 25, 2014, and Petitioner filed its Proposed Recommended
386Order on December 1, 2014 .
392FINDING S OF FACT
3961. The School Board is the state entity designated to
406operate, control, and maintain the public school system. T he
416School BoardÓs power includes the authority to enter into labor
426contracts and to terminate educational support personnel.
4332. Ms. Stevenson began working for the School District in
4432003 as a school bus assistant, and eventually became a school
454bus driv er in August 2004.
4603. A review of Ms. StevensonÓs performance assessments show
469that she was a good employee for the time period leading up to
482the incidents that are the subject of this hearing. For example,
493Ms. StevensonÓs Performance Assessment conduct ed for the
501July 1, 2012 , through June 30, 2013, states that:
510Ms. Stevenson shows great leadership and pays
517great attention to detail. She shows respect
524towards her students, her school and her
531fellow employees. Ms. Stevenson is always in
538uniform and sho ws great professionalism both
545on and off the clock. Ms. Stevenson is very
554passionate about her work and takes great
561pride in doing a great job. It is a pleasure
571and honor working with Ms. Stevenson.
5774. The incidents that are subject of this final heari ng
588occurred during the following school year for 2013 - 2014.
5985. On April 25, 2014, Ms. Stevenson was driving her school
609bus route, returning the students to their homes. Shortly after
619beginning the bus route, Ms. Stevenson began to feel sharp pains
630in her chest. Ms. Stevenson made her first bus stop, and then
642radioed the School DistrictÓs bus dispatch for help. She had
652stopped the bus in a safe location and was told to wait for
665Emergency Management Services (EMS) paramedics.
6706. Ms. Beatrice Aney, a n a ssistant supervisor at the School
682DistrictÓs Leonard Transportation Compound (bus depot), was
689notified about Ms. StevensonÓs call. EMS was contacted, and the
699School District sent another bus to finish the route, and Ms.
710Aney to assist.
7137. The p a ramedics arrived at the scene and began to evaluate
726Ms. StevensonÓs condition. Near that same time, Ms. Aney arrived
736and boarded the school bus in order to watch the children, as the
749paramedics helped Ms. Stevenson.
7538. The p aramedics determined that M s. Stevenson needed to
764be transported to the local hospital for further evaluation.
773Ms. Stevenson was reluctant to leave the bus in the ambulance,
784and expressed her concern about being able to retrieve her car
795keys and pick her child up from daycare on t ime. Ms. Stevenson
808believed that the paramedics had spoken with Ms. Aney, and that
819Ms. Aney had promised that Ms. Stevenson would be picked up from
831the hospital. In the confusion of the bus, Ms. Aney did not hear
844or make any promise to Ms. Stevenson abou t transporting
854Ms. Stevenson from the hospital.
8599. At approximately 3:45 p.m., Ms. Stevenson was admitted
868into the hospital. She was diagnosed as having a panic attack,
879and was administered Xanex for anxiety. According to the
888hospital record and Ms. Ste vensonÓs testimony, she was released
898from the hospital at approximately 5:15 p.m.
90510. After Ms. Stevenson was transported to the hospital,
914Ms. Aney returned to the bus depot. Another school bus had been
926dispatched and finished Ms. StevensonÓs school bus route.
93411. Following her discharge from the hospital,
941Ms. Stevenson called the bus depot seeking a ride from the
952hospital back to the depot. Ms. Luvenia Brown answered the
962phone.
96312. The bus dispatch office was described as a busy place,
974and Ms. A ney was working with the many different driver requests.
986At the time Ms. Stevenson called, Ms. Aney was sitting across
997from Ms. Brown, who answered the phone. Ms. Brown, holding the
1008phone receiver with Ms. Stevenson on the line, asked Ms. Aney
1019about tran sporting Ms. Stevenson from the hospital. Ms. Aney
1029stated that she did not have anyone who could pick up
1040Ms. Stevenson at that moment. Ms. Stevenson overhearing the
1049conversation between Ms. Brown and Ms. Aney stated Ðf**k it, she
1060would walk,Ñ and then h ung up. Unfortunately, in Ms. StevensonÓs
1072anger, she did not speak with either Ms. Aney or Ms. Brown before
1085hanging up the phone. Had Ms. Stevenson waited a moment, she
1096would have learned that Ms. Aney was going to drive to the
1108hospital to pick up Ms. St evenson. Ms. AneyÓs statement that she
1120did not have anyone who could transport Ms. Stevenson related to
1131the fact that she did not have an available driver.
114113. Ms. Stevenson left the hospital angry, and began
1150walking what would have been approximately a six - mile trip from
1162the hospital. As she was walking, Ms. Stevenson was seen by
1173Ms. Niurka Diaz, a fellow school bus driver who recognized
1183Ms. Stevenson. Ms. Diaz had heard about Ms. StevensonÓs illness
1193on the bus radio, and had already completed her sc hool bus route.
1206Ms. Diaz stopped her bus, and offered Ms. Stevenson a ride. At
1218this point, Ms. Stevenson had walked approximately four - tenths of
1229a mile from the hospital.
123414. While Ms. Stevenson was en route to the bus depot,
1245Ms. Aney had left for the hospital in order to transport
1256Ms. Stevenson.
125815. Ms. Stevenson arrived at the school bus depot angry,
1268and she walked into the dispatch office. Upon entering the
1278office, Ms. Stevenson began a prolonged, profane tirade stating,
1287in essence, that her co - workers did not care what happened to
1300her, and then threatening Ðwhere the f**k is Beatrice? I am
1311going to beat her a**.Ñ During Ms. StevensonÓs outburst, she
1321grabbed at papers on the wall and crumpled them. Within a few
1333minutes, Ms. Stevenson exited th e di spatch office and then
1344entered the bus driver lounge. She continued to yell profanities
1354in the hallway and doorway of the bus driver lounge. One of the
1367drivers, Ms. Tomeika Harris, Ms. StevensonÓs friend, attempted to
1376find out what was wrong. Ms. Ha rris reached for
1386Ms. StevensonÓs arm. The video and testimony show that
1395Ms. Stevenson flailed her right arm upward in order to throw off
1407Ms. HarrisÓ hand. Consequently, when Ms. HarrisÓ hand was thrown
1417off Ms. StevensonÓs arm, Ms. HarrisÓ cell phone wa s damaged. At
1429the time Ms. Stevenson reacted, she was so angry that she did not
1442recognize that it was Ms. Harris, her friend, who had reached to
1454touch her. Subsequently, Ms. Stevenson learned that she had
1463damaged Ms. HarrisÓ cell phone , and has since rep laced it .
147516. Ms. Stevenson exited the bus driver lounge into the
1485parking lot. Ms. Black, another school bus driver and friend of
1496Ms. Stevenson, saw her in the parking lot. Ms. Stevenson
1506continued a profane tirade that no one cared about her, and h ow
1519she had been left at the hospital. Ms. Black attempted to calm
1531her friend down, and Ms. Stevenson subsequently left the bus
1541depot in order to pick up her daughter from daycare.
155117. During Ms. StevensonÓs outburst, Ms. Aney was at the
1561hospital looking for Ms. Stevenson. When she could not find
1571Ms. Stevenson, Ms. Aney called the dispatch office and spoke with
1582Ms. Karen Lane. Ms. Lane told Ms. Aney that Ms. Stevenson was at
1595the bus depot and that Ms. Aney needed to return immediately. By
1607the time that Ms. Aney returned, approximately 15 to 20 minutes
1618later, Ms. Stevenson had already left the premises.
162618. The School District did not contact any law enforcement
1636agency concerning Ms. StevensonÓs outburst and threats made
1644against Ms. Aney on April 25, 2014.
165119. The School District began an investigation into
1659Ms. StevensonÓs conduct at the school bus depot. The
1668investigator, Mr. Andrew Brown, learned from one of
1676Ms. StevensonÓs supervisors that Ms. Stevenson had been involved
1685in a prior incident on January 30, 2014.
169320. Mr. Brown was provided a video taken on the bus driven
1705by Ms. Stevenson on January 30, 2014. This January 30, 2014,
1716video, with its audio, shows Ms. Stevenson losing her temper and
1727verbally berating a third - grader because Ms. Steve nson perceived
1738that the third - grader had been disrespectful to her. Further,
1749the video shows Ms. Stevenson yelling at all of the students and
1761warning them about being disrespectful to her.
176821. Following her verbal tirade, Ms. Stevenson turned down
1777the bus radio and called the school bus dispatch on her cell
1789phone while driving the bus. Ms. Stevenson falsely reported that
1799she had tried to call the dispatch on her bus radio, and that she
1813wanted dispatch to inform the school that the identified student
1823h ad been disrespectful to her and that she would be speaking to
1836the studentÓs mother.
183922. Finally, the video shows that at the studentÓs stop,
1849Ms. Stevenson informed the studentÓs mother that the child had
1859been disrespectful, rolling her eyes and had Ðjum ped at her.Ñ
1870The video did not support Ms. StevensonÓs characterization of the
1880third - graderÓs actions as Ðjump[ing] at her.Ñ
188823. After a parent complaint, the School District reviewed
1897the video and suspended Ms. Stevenson as a school bus driver for
1909thr ee days. Ms. StevensonÓs evaluation indicated that
1917Ms. Stevenson was suspended for using the cell phone while
1927driving. Ms. Stevenson testified that her suspension also was
1936the result of her behavior on the bus in addition to the cell
1949phone use. Certain ly, the School District in suspending
1958Ms. Stevenson took into account her inexcusable verbal berating
1967of a third grader on the bus when it suspended her. The fact
1980that Ms. Stevenson used a cell phone while driving the school bus
1992could only have been lear ned by watching the video. As stated
2004earlier, the video shows Ms. StevensonÓs inappropriate behavior
2012directed to the student, and her inappropriate driving while
2021talking on the cell phone. Consequently, the undersigned finds
2030that the School District was aware of Ms. StevensonÓs outburst on
2041the school bus on January 30, 2014, when it suspended her for
2053three days. Finally, it is agreed by the parties that Ms.
2064Stevenson was directed by her supervisor, after the January 30,
20742014, incident , to act courteous ly and cooperatively in the
2084future.
208524. Ms. StevensonÓs unrebutted testimony shows that in 2013
2094and 2014 she was a victim of domestic violence, and had in place
2107a domestic violence injunction against her husband.
2114Ms. Stevenson explained that her difficu lt situation spilled over
2124into her work life causing her anger and anxiety. Prior to her
2136suspension, Ms. Stevenson sought help with Employee Assistance
2144Program counseling concerning her anxiety. However, she has not
2153been able to consistently continue wit h the counseling based on
2164financial difficulties.
216625. During this past school year, Ms. Stevenson has driven
2176a bus for a private transportation company that provides bus
2186services for charter schools without any further incident. She
2195has expressed remor se for her actions, and stated a desire to
2207return as a Lee County School District school bus driver.
2217CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
222026 . DOAH has subject matter jurisdiction over the parties
2230and dispute in the instant case. §§ 120.569, 120.57(1), and
22401012.40(2)(c), Florida Statutes.
224327. The School Board is responsible for the operation,
2252control and supervision of the free public schools in Lee County,
2263Florida. Art. IX, § 4(b), Fla. Const. ; and § 1001.32, Fla. Stat.
2275The School BoardÓs authority extends to personnel matters
2283including the power to suspend or dismiss an employee.
2292§§ 1001.42(5)(a) and 1012.27, Fla. Stat.
229828. The School Board has the burden of proving by a
2309preponderance of the evidence the allegations underlying the
2317proposed disciplinary action. Mc Neill v. Pinellas Cnty. Sch.
2326Bd. , 678 So. 2d 476 (Fla. 2d DCA 1996).
233529. As a school bus driver, Ms. Stevenson is an
"2345educational support employee," as defined by
2351section 1012.40(1(a). Consequently, Ms. StevensonÓs employment
2357is governed by the Collecti ve Bargaining Agreement (SPLAC
2366Contract) between the School Board and the Support Personnel
2375Association of Lee County.
237930. The SPLAC Contract recognizes that Ðdismissal is the
2388extreme disciplinary penalty, since the employeeÓs job seniority,
2396other cont ractual benefits, and reputation are at stake.Ñ
2405Art. 7.10, SPLAC Contract 2013 - 2014. Further, the SPLAC contract
2416requires Ðthat in all instances the degree of discipline shall be
2427reasonably related to the seriousness of the offence and the
2437employeeÓs re cord.Ñ Id. The standard set out in the SPLAC
2448Contract for disciplining an educational support personnel is
2456Ðjust cause.Ñ Id. ; See also § 1012.40(2)(b), Fla. Stat.
246531. The term Ðjust cause" is not defined in the SPLAC
2476Contract. However, in the past, the School Board has used the
2487statutory definition of Ðjust causeÑ found in
2494section 1012.33, Florida Statutes. See Lee Cnty. Sch. Bd. v.
2504Lomonte , Case No. 11 - 0001 (DOAH Feb. 10, 2011 ; Lee Cnty. Sch. Bd.
2518March 8, 2011); Lee Cnty. Sch. Bd. v. Simmons , Case No. 03 - 1498
2532(DOAH July 15, 2003 ; Lee Cnty. Sch. Bd. August 12, 2003); Lee
2544Cnty. Sch. Bd. v. Kehn , Case No. 04 - 1912 (DOAH Feb. 12, 2005 ; Lee
2559Cnty. Sch. Bd. March 10, 2005).
256532. The statutory definition states, in pertinent part,
2573that, Ð[j]ust cause inclu des, but is not limited to, the
2584following instances, as defined by rule of the State Board of
2595Education: . . . misconduct in office[.]Ñ In turn, the State
2606Board of Education has defined Ð[m]isconduct in office,Ñ in part,
2617as a Ðviolation of the adopted sc hool board rules.Ñ Fla. Admin.
2629Code R. 6A - 5.056(2)(c).
263433. Turning to the instant case, the School Board charged
2644Ms. Stevenson with Ðmisconduct in officeÑ for violating article
26537.13 of the SPLAC, which concerns ÐWork Place Civility,Ñ as well
2665as violati ng School Board Policies concerning civility, threats
2674of violence, and professional standards.
267934. ÐWork Place Civility,Ñ set out in article 7.13,
2689states, in part, that employees Ðshall not engage in speech,
2699conduct, behavior (verbal or non - verbal), or c ommit any act of
2712any type which is reasonably interpreted as abusive, profane,
2721intolerant, menacing, intimidating, threatening, or harassing
2727against any person in the workplace.Ñ
273335. Similar to article 7.13 of SPLAC, School Board Policy
27432.02, concerns c ivility and requires that school staff on all
2754District facilities shall treat Ðother school staff, and District
2763employees with courtesy and respect.Ñ Policy 2.02(1)(b), Lee
2771Cnty . Sch. Bd. Further, Policy 2.02 expressly identifies
2780Ðoffensive language, swe aring, cursing, using profane language,
2788or display of temper[,]Ñ as an unacceptable behavior. Policy
27982.02(1)(b), Lee Cnty . Sch. Bd.
280436. Next, School Board Policy 4.09, which addresses
2812ÐThreats of ViolenceÑ sets out the School DistrictÓs Ðޯ zeroÓ
2822tolerance policy for threats of violence.Ñ Further, the policy
2831states that Ð[a]ny serious threat of violence shall result in
2841immediate disciplinary action and referral to the appropriate law
2850enforcement agency.Ñ Finally, School Board Policy 5.02 requires
2858employee s to meet the high ethical standards, and comply with
2869policies concerning employment.
287237. The School Board clearly established Ðjust causeÑ to
2881discipline Ms. Stevenson because the facts clearly show that
2890Ms. Stevenson violated article 7.13, and School Board
2898Policies 2.02, 4.09, and 5.02. It is not disputed that
2908Ms. StevensonÓs profane, angry outburst was offensive and
2916demonstrated a lack of civility. Furthermore, the undersigned
2924finds that Ms. Stevenson violated the School BoardÓs zero
2933tolerance pol icy by threatening to harm Ms. Aney. While not
2944diminishing the seriousness of Ms. StevensonÓs threats against
2952Ms. Aney, the undersigned notes that the School District did not
2963contact law enforcement, as required by its Policy for Ðserious
2973threats.Ñ Final ly, as for the allegation that Ms. Stevenson
2983knocked a cell phone from a fellow employeeÓs hand, the facts
2994showed that Ms. StevensonÓs action was an unintended consequence
3003of her throwing her arm in an upward motion. It is noteworthy
3015that Ms. Stevenson mad e restitution to Ms. Harris for the damaged
3027cell phone.
302938. The Superintendent alleges the facts from the
3037January 30, 2014, incident involving the student on the bus, but
3048does not reference the incident as basis for termination in the
3059charges. Rather, the undersignedÓs reading of the Petition shows
3068that the undisputed January 30, 2014, incident is offered as part
3079of Ms. StevensonÓs prior disciplinary history in deciding whether
3088or not to recommend terminating her employment, not as additional
3098charges su pporting a Ðmisconduct in officeÑ charge.
310639 . As shown earlier, article 7.10 of SPLAC provides, in
3117part, that Ð[a]ny discipline applied by the site based
3126administrator pursuant to this provision shall be, when
3134appropriate, progressive in nature.Ñ The Sch ool Board Policy
31435.26 sets out managerial discipline guideline for transportation
3151employees. Specifically, Policy 5.26 indicates that for the
3159behavior of Ðverbal abuse,Ñ such as profanity or vulgar language ,
3170that the following recommended penalties: firs t offense, written
3179reprimand; second offense, three - day suspension without pay; and ,
3189third offense, termination. School Board Policy 5.26 recognizes
3197that the Ð[s]everity of the offense may result in moving to a
3209higher level of discipline.Ñ
321340 . Turning now to the recommended penalty, the undersigned
3223finds that it is not appropriate to terminate Ms. StevensonÓs
3233employment. At the onset, the undersigned recognizes the
3241seriousness of Ms. StevensonÓs conduct on January 30 and
3250April 25, 2014, and especially the threats against Ms. Aney as
3261supporting a decision to terminate the employment. However, the
3270unique facts here support a lengthy suspension and counseling,
3279not termination. Article 7.10 expressly directs that any
3287discipline consider the employeeÓs re cord. Here, it is
3296undisputed that in the ten years before 2014, Ms. Stevenson was a
3308good employee. Her evaluation from the year before shows that
3318Ms. Stevenson was praised for her professionalism. The
3326unrebutted evidence from Ms. Stevenson showed that i n 2013 and
33372014 she was the victim of domestic violence. This violence had
3348resulted in an injunction against her husband. As Ms. Stevenson
3358compellingly testified, her personal life spilled over into her
3367work. These facts put into perspective the stress, anxiety and
3377pressure that Ms. Stevenson was under when she
3385uncharacteristically acted on both January 30 and April 25, 2014.
3395To Ms. StevensonÓs credit, she began seeking counseling through
3404the School DistrictÓs Employee Assistance program to help her
3413man age the anger and stress. Unfortunately, with her suspension,
3423Ms. Stevenson has been unable to afford the continued counseling
3433services.
343441 . Because Ms. StevensonÓs past employment evaluations
3442show that she was a good employee for over 10 years and t he
3456terrible toll that domestic violence can have on a victim, the
3467undersigned finds that the two incidents in 2014 are an
3477aberration of her character. Consequently, the undersigned does
3485not recommend termination, but a lesser discipline.
3492RECOMMENDATION
3493Ba sed on the foregoing Findings of Fact and Conclusions of
3504Law, it is RECOMMENDED that:
35091. The School Board established Ðjust causeÑ for
3517disciplining Ms. StevensonÓs employment based on the finding that
3526she is guilty of Ðmisconduct in office,Ñ for violating article
35377.13, and School Board Policies 2.02, 4.09, and 5.02;
35462. Ms. Stevenson be suspended without pay from July 1, 2014
3557until the beginning of the January 2015 term; and
35663. A s a condition of continued employment, Ms. Stevenson
3576successfully complete an Employee Assistance Program concerning
3583anger and stress management, and successfully complete training
3591concerning effective communication.
