“Telling them, ‘This is a student that we can’t handle,’” Chen said. “’We need a solution.’ And he got no solution whatsoever. And he had no choice but to go to the media.” “Transformed it into, literally, very quickly – one of the top performing schools in DPS and in the state – it’s the largest school in DPS,” Ballenger said.Dennis is now represented by renowned Denver attorney David Lane who said in a statement, “Mr. Dennis was fired in retaliation for his first amendment protected free speech.
