Over fifty people attended the May 5, 2015 Fillmore Unified School District (FUSD) Board Meeting. Some had come to see the Fillmore High School (FHS) students who competed in the U.S. Navy Seal Challenge at the U.S. Naval Base in Coronado, California, but most had come to support an FUSD employee up for termination.

Sixteen Public Speakers cards were turned in, with five of them forfeiting their time to Louann Brock, who read a statement from Bob Sube. Public comment lasted about an hour. The item that had drawn such interest and filled the room to overflow capacity was the termination of Fillmore's School Farm Tech Wayne Noblitt.

First to speak was Brock. She addressed the Board from a written statement saying, "On Friday, March 6, 2015 Mr. Noblitt was placed on paid administrative leave due to the fact that he discharged a firearm on the school farm (grounds) when he shot a vicious dog (1 of 2) who had attacked and killed one student's goat and was going after another. The dogs ran off into the river and have not been seen since. Mr. Noblitt truthfully and immediately reported the incident to Mr. Joe Richards, a practice that has been the standard for as many years as we have owned the School Farm. Mr. Noblitt had absolutely no idea that having done what was expected of him would in turn result in a termination recommendation. Not only has he been faced with possible termination, but the District also requested that the local Sheriff's department get involved and alluded to the possible need for criminal charges.......I have spent weeks on the phone talking to community members who have expressed complete disbelief that Mr. Noblitt, while attempting to safeguard our students animals, was being recommended for termination, when no written policy exists and the only verbal policy is that he did exactly as instructed (which was) if you discharge a firearm to report it, as he did, and then don't discuss it, end of story.....To have placed an employee on paid administrative leave without notifying me as the President, while not illegal, is certainly not conducive to open, honest communication and concern for an employee and their rights."
