A day before a School Committee meeting where the board will discuss firing the superintendent without cause, the city teacher’s union is publicly opposing the move.

And a look at the meeting's agenda reveals the committee may also face legal claims against it by Superintendent Tracy Curley.

According to a statement by Fall River Educators’ Association President Keith Michon, the FREA said it is defending Curley’s position “citing concerns about the conduct of School Committee members throughout the process.”

Also of concern to FREA is what such a firing could mean for “future district leadership recruitment, and the disruption caused to students and school communities.”
