Newport-Mesa school chief gets no confidence vote from teachers

An overwhelming majority of Newport-Mesa Unified School District teachers have no confidence in their beleaguered superintendent, according to a vote announced by the teachers union.

Ballots sent out Oct. 20 to the teachers in the Newport-Mesa Federation of Teachers showed 91.2% voted no confidence in Jeffrey Hubbard, union officials confirmed.

Of the 959 members, 379 participated -- a nearly 40% voter turnout.

"We hope the school board will pay attention that 90% of the teachers have no confidence in our superintendent," said union President Kimberly Claytor. "It's a sad thing. I don't mean it's sad that they have no confidence, it's sad about the whole scenario."
