On April 4, 2001, the day after reciving Larkins' fax, the district asked Maura Larkins
to return to work, but began to create a paper trail with false accusations to
cover-up its illegal actions of February 12, 2001.

This grievance was a hoax, created to fool Maura Larkins into thinking the union was representing her. Jim
Groth was rewarded for his dishonesty by CTA, which has a policy of supporting local leaders no matter what they
do, and is now a member of CTA's board of directors.

In order to keep Larkins unaware
of the role CVE was playing in the
Larkins case, CVE president Jim
Groth played a clever trick on CVE
member Maura Larkins. Jim
Groth, who was then the
grievance chairman, and is now a
director of CTA, with the help of
Executive Director Tim O'Neill and
then-President Gina Boyd,
convinced Larkins that he was
representing her. He was actually
trying to prevent her from figuring
out that CVE and certain teachers
had committed crimes against
her. CVE was supporting the
teachers who had made the
accusations, Linda Watson and Jo
Ellen Hamilton. The motive was
the upcoming election of Gina
Boyd, and the friendship of Gina
Boyd with Linda Watson and the
originator of the potential
murderer allegation, Robin Donlan.

Jim Groth knew the truth when he published the following in March 2008:
"CTA works hard to ensure your rights are protected.
"A member's rights come through the contract bargaining by SDEA and through
laws and education code.
"If a right is violated, CTA provides members resources to defend their rights. "
In fact, Jim Groth made sure that Maura Larkins rights were violated, that the
law was disobeyed, and that absolutely no resources were provided to defend
Maura Larkins. The same was true in the case of Danielle Cozaihr.
Mr. Groth further writes:
"Members also receive ... protection of due process rights, and free legal
consultations."
Jim Groth knows that this is not true in many cases. It all depends on what CTA
officials feel to be in their own interest.
Mr. Groth also warns:
"Non-members will not be given access to CTA legal resources."
At least they don't pay thousands and thousands of dollars which will then be
used to pay for lawyers who work to deny their rights!

Contract broken in transfer of
5 teachers
Superintendent needed to give
reason, ruling finds
By Chris Moran
February 11, 2006
CHULA VISTA – Chula Vista's
elementary schools
superintendent violated union
contract rules by not explaining
to five Castle Park Elementary
School teachers why he
transferred them to other
schools in 2004, an arbitrator
has ruled.
Only one of the five, first-grade
teacher Nikki Perez, has
returned to the school. Jim
Groth, president of the teachers
union, said the other four
teachers declined to return
because of the disruption of
switching schools mid-year.
Tom Cruz, Chula Vista
Elementary School District's
assistant superintendent for
human resources, agreed that
a mid-year transfer would be
disruptive but said the district
had to follow the letter of the
arbitrator's ruling.
The ruling on Dec. 21 states
that the teachers are entitled to
reinstatement to their old jobs
“commencing with the next
semester.” In Chula Vista, that
meant Jan. 30.
The arbitrator upheld the
authority of Chula Vista
Superintendent Lowell Billings
to move teachers from school
to school. But the district's
contract with Chula Vista
Educators requires Billings to
have a “conference” with each
teacher.
Billings met with each of the five
teachers, but did not explain his
decisions other than to say, “It
is in the best interests of the
educational program,” the
ruling states.
The arbitrator ruled that the
contract does not allow the
superintendent to repeat this
“as a mantra” in meeting with
the teachers.
“This was not a 'conference,'
as that word is defined, but a
unilateral ukase,” the
arbitrator wrote.
“To this day, the five teachers
don't know why they were
administratively transferred,”
Groth said.
The case isn't over. The union
also seeks payment to Perez
and former Castle Park
teachers Stephenie Petitt,
Victoria Singleton, Robin
Donlan and Peggie Myers for
expenses related to their
transfers. These include time
spent packing and unpacking
and the purchase of teaching
materials needed, as some of
them changed grades.
The five teachers had been
active at Castle Park on the
school site council, which
governs the school, and the
budget committee, which
makes recommendations on
how to spend money.
Then-Principal Ollie Matos
testified that several of the
teachers refused to cooperate
with changes he wanted to
make to improve the school, the
arbitrator's ruling states.
Billings made the transfers.
Matos has since left Castle
Park to become director of
educational services at Lemon
Grove School District. Castle
Park has had nine principals
and interim principals in just
over a decade.
