See CVESD accuses Maura Larkins of refusing to come to work. Maura Larkins refused to come to work after severe harassment by rogue teachers at Castle Park Elementary, saying she would not return until an investigation had been done. CVESD filed the charge of "insubordination" weeks AFTER Maura Larkins filed a lawsuit against the district; thus, the effort to fire her was a violation of Labor Code 1105.2.
The district put Richard Werlin in charge of investigating complaints about his own actions.
Not surprisingly, no investigation was ever done--by Werlin or anyone else--regarding events at Castle Park Elementary.
Werlin demanded that Larkins report to his office without any guarantee of protection from Werlin's unpredictable behavior.

Now you've really done it, Pixie!
To: Pixie Hayward-Schnickele
If you hadn't helped Richard Werlin cover up his crimes in San Diego, it's very unlikely he would have been hired in Richmond in 2006. And if Richard Werlin hadn't been hired by your own West Contra Costa County Unified School District, the chances are miniscule that your fellow teacher Jenny Mo would have been arrested. It was shameful to arrest a teacher in front of her second-graders, haul her off to jail, and keep her there on $900,000 bond for taking her students hostage. The District Attorney did not agree with this action, and released Jenny Mo without charges. Shame on the teachers of Sheldon School who only worried about their own reputations, and were willing to damage a fellow teacher to this extent. Pixie wanted to please those teachers who wanted to silence Jenny Mo. Jenny Mo refused to be silent about her belief that not enough was being done about bullying at Sheldon Elementary School.
Principal Cynthia Swainbank is taking all the heat, but you can bet she talked to Richard Werlin about every move. You can also bet that Richard Werlin talked to your teachers union (UTR) about the case before he acted. UTR, in which you hold office as treasurer, causes problems for many teachers and students, Pixie. You personally contributed to a lot of problems in Chula Vista in your position on CTA's board of directors, and then those problems migrated to Richmond in the person of Richard Werlin.
Give teachers a break, Pixie. Quit being Beverly Tucker and Carolyn Doggett's rubber stamp as a member of the board of directors of California Teachers Association.
