HAYWARD SCHOOLS | Hayward school board member John Taylor, with some panache, publicly asked embattled Superintendent Stan “Data” Dobbs at a meeting Wednesday night whether or not he intends to leave the school district anytime soon. Dobbs, appearing to follow a script, defiantly answered that he was here to stay. Supporters of Dobbs, many of whom spoke in favor of him during two hours of public comment, cheered wildly.
However, a three-page letter sent May 23 from Dobbs’ attorney to the school board’s legal counsel shows his declaration is not entirely true.
The letter was obtained by the East Bay Citizen early Wednesday and contains 10 bullet points laying out Dobbs’ demands for a negotiated settlement to end his employment at the Hayward Unified School District, including a resignation date of June 30.
Aside from standard requests for post-employment pay and benefits, Dobbs is also asking for a non-disparagement clause against the school board punishable by a $25,000 fee for each occurrence and indemnification from any legal claims made against him while employed by the district.
This would not be the first time Dobbs publicly pledged allegiance to the Hayward school district despite evidence to the contrary. Just prior to be hired in 2013, Dobbs pulled his name out of consideration for the job. Days later, he had second thoughts.
The East Bay Citizen has chosen not to publish the entire letter (see below) due to concerns for Dobbs’ privacy. Passages at the beginning and conclusion of the letter describe personal details that are unrelated to his employment.
I like Mr Dobbs because he treats workers well! He took time to speak with me and was polite and he inspires us support workers ( not a teacher, but a helper).
I believe there is a racism thing going on. I would like the school board members to respect Mr. Dobbs instead of trying to push his buttons, so to speak. This one school board member is disgusting and all know who I am referring to. Disgusting!!!
I think even disgusting school board members could change, be a roll model for anti bullying…but, I believe in GOD.
Mr. Dobbs I believe you are a wonderful superintendent, and you lost your temper once because you are passionate about doing good things for children and stakeholders.
Ifnwe got Google or Tesla or some mega tech company to give big grants for learning we could move forward better, $$$ tears all apart.

Stop making comments that teachers support Dobbs. We are contracted employees who work within the contract. Dobbs has been completely unreadonable, dodging meetings, hiring and defending abusive principals. He is one of the worse superintendents. However do not paint everyone with the same brush. Yes, there are some district and other administration who support his craziness, there probably are a handful of teachers who support them. Many teachers however, have been miserable underived his reign. Some great ones have left (our student's loss), many retire earlier than they planned, and some are staying the course hoping to make it until his departure. Discussion on an online message board is ok. However, if you're truly concerned public outcry is best. Don't let the 20 member NAACP outnumber you at school boards. Hold them accountable.

I have no dogs in this fight, ie, no kids in HUSD schools, both of mine graduated from CVUSD and SRVUSD years ago. Just watching this train wreck month after month would infuriate me if I lived in the voting borders of this city. The entire board needs to go, if for no other reason than just grandstanding, and their other past sins. I shake my head and feel pity for the parents of Hayward and their kids.
When we bought our home 20+ years ago, we MADE SURE we were within the CVUSD boundaries, and looking back, it was was an expensive, but good decision. I am happy with the Education they got, and that they got out before the recent fracas with the CVUSD. Good luck to you all.

As far as I am concerned, Reynoso can go too. The conflict of interest that I've never silenced on from day 1 has and always will be his own corrupt ways.
Before 2008, and trust me he knows exactly when this happened as his lawsuit is a matter of public record (against HUSD), he single handedly made illegal allocations of donated equipment to the facility location he worked at. It was not his property and yet he claimed as much. Pictures were on the front page of the daily review. He immediately withdrew his lawsuit and then put his name into the vacancy spot to run for the incumbents seat on the Board. I never was silent about it. So the reality question here is:
Should you really trust someone like Reynoso who broke the law (and yes I know details as I worked for HUSD) and then is being entrusted to make judgment calls on illegal allocations when he himself committed the same acts. So tell me again how did Reynoso get permitted to vote Yay OR Nay on anything when it came to this past years votes on terminating or keeping people on the payroll. That is a severe conflict of interest. To my knowledge, he should have recused himself and abstained from all matters of such content, but he did not. He continues to make conflicting decisions in contrary to his own actions. He needs to be removed. I know personally all too well how Reynoso and the other board members were contacted directly with this AND many other issues.
Board President Taylor was compromised and should have no affiliation with the board.
Reynoso is a Thief and Fraud and never should have been voted in period and unfortunately the public was veiled and blinded by his dishonesties when he was elected into office.
There is a female board member who also has history in the district and she knows exactly who SHE is. If she really wants to claim innocent and blameless in HUSD dealings, then I have no issue with outting her as well.
There's so much behind these characters that never should have been placed or elected too their positions. They were not honest or forthcoming with their so-called achievements and past. People can and do change.
I will just put it this way: skeletons are opening the closet doors and as far as I am concerned, they should have been considered for election fraud for lying about their “history” and past involvement with HUSD.

I can only imagine, 11:58am. But, years of employment or not, I would have lost my job LONG ago if Dobbs came at me with his infamous F-bombs. Not sure WHY he thinks he can treat people with such little respect, but I would then file every unlawful termination case that COULD be filed against him AND the district for tolerating that kind of behavior. But, even if I managed to get my position back, I know the Dobbs lovefest tentacles run far and keep at district, which would probably result in my being blacklisted for the rest of my days as an HUSD employee. WhatEVER! At least I wouldn't be his F-bomb bitch.

7:53am: You are spot on. Dobbs has treated his subordinates just how you are imagining. His outbursts at the district office are loud, disrespectful, combative management style and little consideration for those in attendance have definitely made employees feel they are walking on egg shells. At any moment, when employees advise Dobbs he is not able to get things as fast as he wants or that policy prevents his desire from being fulfilled, Dobbs will go off. Many times (usually happens most of the time) using profanity against employee(s). He has no regard for what is in policy because – in his own words – he's in charge and what he says goes (sorry, I left out the F*N words he uses on everyone here). His recent outbursts in terminating employees is at a cost. Unlawful labor practices he himself exhibit has resulted in back pay and reinstatement of employees. So far, how many claims and suits have been brought against the district because of him? I know of several that it is only a matter of time before payment is made to restore the good names of employees wrongfully terminated by Dobbs himself because they told Dobbs he can't have what he is requesting during one of his tantrums.
Dobbs needs to go – – – NOW!
How is it that the Board is allowing this rogue behavior to continue? How can a Board receive evidence and hand the evidence to the employee himself to “investigte wrongdoing” instead of requesting external authorities to conduct the investigation or do it themself? Why didn't the Board ask County officials at the County Office of Education to step in and address matters sent to them? Whistleblowers in the district are not protected as one may be lead to believe as outlined in the Whistleblowers Act. No one here is willing to jeopardize their years of employment to speak out against someone that will not be sitting in the same seat beyond his contract.
Wake up Board members….!!!! Elections are a wonderful thing. Do your job.

Interesting post, 6:37am. Dobbs very well may have something over the boards head – or maybe they're just waiting until June 30th to show him the door. Obviously, SOMETHING prompted his little visit with an attorney to get that cover my ass letter typed up.
Maybe the board hasn't taken action as yet because of the frequent “Stan, Stan, he's our man, if he can't do it, no one can” love fests at board meetings, which I find over the top and suspect at times.
I absolutely see Dobbs as the kind of person who would go after any employee who stood up to his BS. Come on, if he behaved the way he did toward board members, who are in essence his boss, I can only imagine how he's treated his subordinates.

HUSD school board has received documentation within the past 12 months that support firing Stan Dobbs without cost to the district as a direct result of Dobbs' many egregious stunts he has played and opened the district up to various wilfull intent tortious acts by which the insurance company will not cover. I truly believe this is why Dobbs' is dictating being indemnified and having HUSD cover liability costs for his actions while he has served as superintendent of HUSD. He may not have personal professional liability insurance to cover his liability issues. He has definitely caused a hostile work environment throughout the district administration offices by his public outbursts against subordinate employees. Employees are concerned they will be put on target next should they speak out against him.
As stated before, the Board has sufficient evidence to remove Dobbs for “just cause” which would release the district of their contract with him. He has not fulfilled his side of the contract. His repeated actions causing REPEATED violations of multiple laws and Board Policies give the Board more ammo to take disciplinary actions against Dobbs but choose not to.
Does Dobbs have that much on the members they fear he may retaliate and expose them? I have been trying to figure them out since they were given how many justifiable reasons to fire him on a silver platter this past year yet have chosen not to take corrective actions. The only thing I can think of is that Dobbs may have something over their heads.

A woman from the NAACP comes and sits with them. the teachers union support Dobbs because most of the 100 million the schools got , went to their raises. The teachers are garbage who support a superintendent, who pays an ex 49 going through a rape trail, to be a speaker for at risk youths. The news reports Dobbs as many supporters. That is what the $2,000 teacher from San Diego does best: rally the uninformed to support Dobbs.

Yes, Yes, Stan Liar Dancing Dobbs still employed mainly due to a very “backbone-spine-testicle” deficient school board.
After seeing your board meetings on video it seems that you have at the most 1 or 2 trustees Reynoso and Brunner that can actually do their job. All you people in Hayward need a much steadier board. You have a majority of a board that is too scared to make the tough calls they got elected to do. Taylor and Walker are completely worthless, but there might be some hope for McGee. This coming election you need a new board. Vote the bums out. Elect people that are not afraid of the Teachers Union (educational terrorists) and College Bound (the 2,000/hr ripoff program). Your board meetings are very entertaining by just watching so much sleazy corruption take place on TV. Vote them out in November and Fire that worthless violent superintendent Dobbs.

In my opinion, Stan Dobbs needs to be fired. His terms of resignation are extortion. He doesn’t fix the deteriorated schools, so he thinks he deserves a lot of money to leave? This shows he does care about the school district and the kids. He cares about filling his own pockets. Between his lying (no physical contact when chest bumping two trustees and being medicated), not doing his job when Dr. Reynoso asked him for the lease contracts over and over again, taking $20, 000 for a class at Stanford from the district’s funds, hiring an alleged rapist to be an inspirational speaker for teens, not being able to confirm his degrees, and not having an educational background, in education.
What legal claims are made against Dobbs?
“Aside from standard requests for post-employment pay and benefits, Dobbs is also asking for a non-disparagement clause against the school board punishable by a $25,000 fee for each occurrence and indemnification from any legal claims made against him while employed by the district.” By Steven Tavarrus EBCItizen.com
( Look up: Stan Dobbs.com) Where is his written doctorial denotation, so we can read what Dobbs has published for his PhDs? (Where are his diploma’s, in his office?) Why does he want to be called Data Dobbs. Two PhDs should be called Doctor Dobbs. Data Dobbs should sound like Ben Carson, or Colin Powell when he speaks. Sometimes I can’t understand him and wish they showed subtitles when he speaks.
(Look up: Superintendent of San Diego Stan Dobbs.) Did he get fired from there? The people in San Diego hated him. How much money did Dobbs get, to get out of his contract in San Diego, after 6 months? Did he ask for money to leave San Diego? He gets a military pension.
Who approved the $20,000 for Dobbs’ Stanford class? The Board did not. Was it in his contract for continuing education? I would rather that money go for student scholarships to Chabot. Dobbs came with 2 supposed PhDs. Why does Hayward have to educate him more? It didn’t make him any smarter? Dobbs hired an alleged rapist to speak for the teens, a few months after graduating from Stanford. Dobbs claims he has a law PhD. What lawyer would hire an alleged rapist? Dobbs has been in the news a lot, even when he worked in San Diego. What an embarrassment for Hayward.
Lets do a Hillary Clinton on Dobbs. At a Board meeting Dobbs gave Dr. Reynoso dates, when he mailed the lease contracts. We can check his emails and server, to see if he is not telling the truth.
Why, when the police called Dobbs for his testimony for his the filthy words and chest bumping, to McGee and Reynoso, Dobbs wouldn’t answer the phone, when the police called him. Taylor called Dobbs and gave the phone to the police, after Taylor testified no physical contact. Dobbs answers the phone calls from Taylor, but not the police and Dobbs is supposed to have a law degree? The other female trustees lied about Dobbs attacking the trustees, too. They both have different stories than Taylor and Dobbs. Read the police report about Dobbs’ attack, on his bosses. Read it on EBCitizen.com
Do you want a picture of your child with Dobbs and the district’s to low to fail certificates ?
Is Dobbs a good mentor to the children? NO! State testing has been lowered so students can pass. Their certificates are worthless. How can they compete with the advanced students from India and China moving here, for jobs ?
Do NOT re-elect Tylor, Walker or Brunner for trustees.

According to the items I have read, Dobbs has both: one, offered to leave as of June 30 if he is granted various items; and two, also very strongly stated that he has absolutely no intention of leaving.
So it sounds to me like he very likely has the “honesty” and “consistency” of the typical Bay area politician. In fact, we should consider giving him a job on a high school faculty, and his specialty could be teaching the students “ethics,” or at least from a Bay area perspective.
