Opinion

STONE (S. J.), P. J.

Appellant, Mary Quirk, appeals the denial of her petition for a writ of mandate seeking to compel respondent, Moorpark Board of Education (Board), to reinstate her as principal of Moorpark Memorial High School. She asserts that the Board wrongfully released her from that position and reassigned her to a classroom teaching position on the basis of incompetency, without conducting an evaluation pursuant to Education Code section 44896. We hold that she failed to show that incompetency was a basis for her reassignment and affirm the judgment denying the writ.
