Interesting. Behind the scenes attorneys representing GRISD and Joelle Ogletree had been working on a mutually satisfactory agreement to bring the legal issues surrounding Ogletree's civil cases to an end. (For background, read here). Last night, the board members went into executive session, came out and voted to accept the agreement. Basically, Ogletree will not have to pay attorney fees to the school, 4 years from now she will be able to volunteer, as long as she is not directly supervising children, at her chidren's school and 6 years from now will be able to apply for teaching positions, whether substitute or permanent positions. The court/attorney fees were due to her appeal to the Federal Court being denied in 2010; the attorneys for GRISD had filed for costs. She in turn had appealed.
