🚨 What’s Up With PfISD? 🚨
The numbers speak for themselves. Pflugerville ISD has nearly as many vacancies as Austin ISD — but with only a third of the students. And school starts soon. For a similar size comparison, Hays ISD has a third of the vacancies.

I’ve heard from multiple recent UT grads that entire graduating classes have been warned not to apply to PfISD. That might explain why the district still has 302 open positions, including some critical roles at Weiss:

❗️Still no Head Track/XC Coach — So did they keep Coach Strong even after his arrest and expired certification or is this to replace him?

❗️Another Head Counselor vacancy — seriously, has there ever been a year Weiss hasn’t lost at least one and sometimes all of them?

❗️Still hiring yet another front office person. How many is that now?

❗️And the Special Education department seems to be in trouble — a ton of unfilled positions remain, from instructional aides to SPED inclusion teachers to specialists. That would be Tran and Welch's department.

🔍 What’s the real turnover rate at Weiss High School? And more importantly — why is it so high year after year?

When a district this size struggles this badly to fill key positions — especially this close to the first day of school — it’s not just about staffing. It points to deeper issues in leadership, trust, and culture.

🧭 What are they doing to fix it? And what should we be doing to hold them accountable?

📢 Questioning Campus Ethics: Springfield's Career Move

There's been a buzz around Springfield (holding Tran's gift bag, right next to her) lately as he transitions from security guard to a position at Weiss as a Behavior EA, passing up a lateral move to the OC . Known for spending a lot of time with AP Tran, AP Oduwole, and "Officer DJ," the four of them have even had special photo shoots together, showcasing their camaraderie.

However, Springfield's choice to turn down an opportunity to assist students at the Opportunity Center raises eyebrows. Why did campus administration allow this move? 🧐 Is this decision in the best interest of our students?

We need to question not just Springfield’s decision, but also the ethics behind administrative approvals. Could friendships have influenced this career path? Or is there more to the story? It's crucial for us as a community to seek transparency and ensure that the focus remains on empowering students.

Also, hasn't Ramon Nazario brought enough scrutiny to the Weiss SpEd department? Isn't Tran over SpEd? She will be Springfield's direct supervisor? How has she handled the complaints against Nazario? Has he been formally investigated ?
What are your thoughts? 🤔

🚨 Accountability in Leadership 🚨

It's concerning to see that Ruth Yamaguchi, who earns a substantial salary, allowed Darrin Strong to teach for an entire year without a valid certification. Given how critical proper certification is for our educators and the impact it has on students' learning, this oversight is unacceptable.

Additionally, she allowed Coach Nwoko's certification to be flagged unnecessarily by her colleague Ameka Hunt, even after he had already been cleared. This raises serious questions about the seriousness with which she approaches her responsibilities. When you're in control of people's livelihoods, it's essential to prioritize their professional requirements and uphold our standards.

Ah now we know where the buck stops when we wonder who let Coach Strong teach over a year on an expired license. Sources say that had he tried to renew his license the arrest would've been a problem, so it's possible HR knew and didn't act on it.

A reminder of how corrupt PFISD HR and Weiss admin are.

07/21/2025

With all the talk about HR lately, here is a reminder that PFISD HR Ruth Yamaguchi spent quite a while 🕒 in conversation with Ameka Hunt about an anonymous alert they had received. They focused so much on trying to figure out who reported it 🤔 that she forgot to address the complaint! 🚨

🚨 Major shake-up at Weiss! After Coach and PALS sponsor Nwoko was investigated and cleared, Brettany Kokes—his longtime mentor—is now stepping in to replace him. What’s more, she’s allegedly best friends with Ameka Hunt, who reported Nwoko's investigation to TEA and pushed for his non-renewal.

Why is Kokes making this move after 28 years at PHS? Did they really follow proper hiring protocols? Kokes is now in a position that raises eyebrows about transparency and fairness in this situation.

Nwoko has previously mentioned Ramon Nazario to the board and superintendent, yet they failed to act, kicking it back to Ameka Hunt, who seems to be allegedly protecting him. Nwoko's left in limbo, having faced scrutiny but ultimately cleared, while PFISD hasn't suspended Nazario nor has a complete investigarion occurred. I’m asking anyone who has witnessed the contact or heard about it firsthand to come forward.

What kind of environment is Weiss creating that allows these dramatic events to unfold? It’s time to dig deeper and uncover the truth! 🔍💥

🚨 **Current Weiss High School Staff Member Raises Serious Questions** 🚨

Ramon Nazario (bottom right, making hand signs) is currently working at Weiss High School as a behavior teacher — a position that puts him in direct contact with some of the most vulnerable and high-needs students on campus. It also allows him, as you may find teachers will agree, to go all over campus as he appears to have no set schedule, much more freedom than a classroom teacher hs.
https://www.scribd.com/document/863159933/Weiss-Behavior-Teacher-Ramon-Nazario-Austin-ISD-Records
Here’s what public records from his time at Austin ISD reveal:

📌 AISD *refused to release* his performance evaluations, citing legal protections for documents that "evaluate a teacher's performance."
📌 AISD also withheld internal HR records under "attorney-client privilege" which is typically used in cases involving sensitive employee matters or legal concerns.
📌 His employment with AISD ended in November 2022, with no explanation provided in the documents released.

🔎 Do these facts raise red flags for you?

Why is someone with sealed records and a sudden unexplained separation from a major district working in a role responsible for student behavior and emotional support?

We owe it to our kids — and to the staff who work beside him — to ask the hard questions.

💬 Thoughts?

🚨 Attention, Community of Weiss! 🚨

You're facing an important question regarding who you want working around your teenage daughters.

On one hand, we have a coach who is known for his compassion and being a positive influence on students. He was the PALS teacher who responded to an innocent Instagram message from a student. After being cleared by HR and the SRO, he was welcomed back to campus. Yet, after reaching out to the superintendent and board members about Ramon Nazario, a colleague with a troubling history of reported incidents, he suddenly found himself escorted off campus by three SROs for not participating in what many describe as a charade of an investigation. They claimed he broke policy by failing to report Nazario, despite the fact that none of the three known reports against Nazario have led to a formal investigation. Meanwhile, Ameka Hunt chose to report the coach to the TEA unnecessarily.

Note that the board members and superintendent know all about the allegations against Nazario and have chosen to "follow protocol" and essentially washed their hands of the situation. That will likely be Important Information one day.

Could it be that the coach’s lack of association with CAABSE did not give him the protection that Nazario has? Coincidentally, Nazario worked with Willie Watson at Manor, and sources say he was the driving force behind Nazario getting hired at Weiss following his departure from AISD, where there has been a refusal to release his records, raising critical questions: Why was he even hired, and why do they allegedly protect him?

Employees who know about this situation and have chosen to remain silent are part of the problem, although likely due to actions taken against those in the past who have spoken up. However there Is strength Im numbers and It's time to do the right thing.

We need to ask ourselves: Who do we trust to be around our kids? Let’s ensure our schools are places of safety and support for our children! It’s essential that Nazario be reported and that the coach be cleared. And an important questions remain: Why did Ameka Hunt allow the coach back on campus if she felt it was important enough to report him unnecessarily to the TEA and why hasn't she acted as strongly to allegations againat Nazario?

🚨 Urgent Update About a Beloved Teacher and Coach 🚨

A troubling situation has arisen involving a caring and compassionate coach and teacher who was not only cleared after an investigation but also welcomed back to work and allowed to be around kids. Yet, Principal Ameka Hunt reported him to the Texas Education Agency (TEA) against policy. This move has thrown him into a frustrating limbo, risking his new position while TEA is bogged down with cases.

He has reached out to the superintendent and a board member for help, but they told him to "trust the process." Meanwhile, there are concerns regarding the administration's handling of Ramon Nazario. People have stated they reported him, but others argue that there’s no point. He was reported twice last year for inappropriate contact but has not suffered any consequences.

To make matters worse, he was pressured into a meeting with no notice or representation during testing. When he mentioned the inconsistent reporting related to Nazario, Principal Hunt pretended he was refusing to name someone who wasn't acting appropriately with students and pressured him to give them a name and write a report. Knowing it was futile, he refused to meet at that time. Subsequently, he was escorted off campus by not one but three uniformed school resource officers and security guard Springfield, in front of the entire baseball team, damaging his reputation in a troubling display of intimidation.

What do you think about Ameka Hunt's actions? Can anyone provide help or resources to address this situation with TEA? And let’s not forget—was Nazario ever reported to TEA? 🤔

Let’s stand up and support this coach during this challenging time.
