The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit has ruled in favor of the Miami-Dade County  School Board in a suit brought by two administrators who claimed their First Amendment rights were violated.

Alberto Fernandez, principal, and Henny Cristobol, assistant principal, claimed they were demoted and disciplined for their efforts to turn the historic Neva King Campbell Educational Center into a charter school. After originally opening in 1913 as an elementary school, the center was renovated and reopened in the 1980s to serve students with intellectual disabilities.
