Warrington Middle School was Thomas’ first big project. He declared in 2009 that he would make the school the best in district, possibly the state. We wrote about the problems at the school in 2011. Thomas and the school board ignored our report. This past school year, WMS was ranked as the tenth lowest performing middle school in the state of Florida.

Read Tarnished Turnaround to get the background on the problems at the school.
