Maxie Johnson goes back to school and carries on a live broadcast without student permission. This is not the first time the Dallas Independent School District Trustee took to the air for self promotion.
Dallas ISD’s website says “Media should refrain from contacting Dallas ISD students, teachers or staff without FIRST receiving approval from our media team, and is asked not visit campuses prior to receiving approval.”
Dallas ISD Strategic Communication was contacted five times for comment about Johnson’s broadcast and policy rules surrounding it.
The new superintendent, Stephanie Elizalde, could not be reached for comment. Johnson did attend her first public meeting in June 2022 with the Next Generation Action Network (NGAN).
NGAN’s “CEO minister” Dominique Alexander has previously been convicted of felony assault against a child. It is unclear his relationship with the Dallas schools, but Johnson has similar problems.
It makes his lack of attention to safety details important for some parents.
