MURPHYS, Calif. – Members of the Vallecito Union School District board of trustees believe one of their colleagues may have lost their mind.

Trustees hired a private investigator from Sacramento last fall to look into the bizarre behavior of fellow trustee Carol Ann Gordon, who taught in the district for 31 years before voters elected her to the board in 2010, News 10 reports.

The 10-page report issued Aug. 18 details numerous troubling incidents involving Gordon, and serves as the primary evidence of those seeking her voluntary resignation.

The report points to numerous incidents at Michelson Elementary School that eventually led the principal to secure a restraining order against her, as well as an Aug. 8 school board meeting at which Gordon was presented with the ban, according to the news site.

The report states Gordon briefly left that meeting to use an upstairs office restroom, which she allegedly vandalized by stuffing paper towels down the toilet and smearing feces on the seat.

The report concluded that Gordon “is unable to discharge the important duties of her office due to an unknown mental capacity that severely affects her judgment and behaviors,” News 10 reports.

Her critics mounted a recall effort, but it floundered without enough signatures.

Board members eventually banned Gordon from all schools, and now require her to attend board meetings by phone, which she does sporadically, board president Tom Pratt told the news site.

“We have concern for our children and our staff’s safety,” Pratt told the Calaveras Enterprise. “We can’t spend all this time policing her. It’s eroding the trust of the community in the district.”

Board members passed a resolution Jan. 21 that also cited Gordon’s “unprofessional and potentially illegal” activities in the community.

According to the Jan. 21 Enterprise report:

“Such conduct reflects poorly on her as a member of the Vallecito Union School District Governing Board,” the resolution said, citing three times she was allegedly removed from the Murphys Hotel. Reasons listed were “ripping plants out of the planter boxes and throwing plants onto the ground” and “removing Christmas decorations without hotel management’s permission” on Dec. 31. Murphys Hotel management declined to comment.

With Wednesday’s resolution, the board “proclaims to the public that it disapproves of and will not tolerate the type of … conduct that Gordon has displayed in the local community.”

Gordon was arrested on a vandalism charge for the New Year’s incident, and other area merchants have banned her for similarly outrageous behavior, News 10 reports.

“Jennifer Chedester, owner of Jenz Hair Salon, said Gordon once came into the shop demanding a haircut without an appointment and then walked out without paying,” according to the news site.

“She has shown up to eighth grade graduation with lovely see-through clothing on … and no undergarments,” Chedester told News 10.

The controversial 69-year-old board member has been open with the media and recently met with a reporter outside her home, and allegedly admitted she recently endured two psychiatric holds.

“It is very strange. I think part of the conflict is I am one of the first teachers ever voted onto a school board in Calaveras County. And I still feel there’s a resistance because of that,” Gordon told News 10.

Regardless, Gordon won’t resign.

“What they have not realized is that I am going to continue to serve. That I am not disruptive. It’s the opposite actually, if you want to talk about anonyms,” she said.

Gordon insists she’s a victim.

“It’s ridiculous to think that I am unable to do a job that the voters elected me to do,” she told the Enterprise late last month. “They’re targeting me and I still don’t know why. I’m not violating any governance policy. I am part of the governance team.”
