Tyler Hatfield, is now a former special education Tullahoma City Schools teacher. Hatfield was fired recently for lying about his licensing on a teacher application. Hatfield had said he was a licensed teacher.
Tullahoma City Schools officials learned that wasn’t true. Hatfield was terminated immediately from his job at West Middle School in Tullahoma.
Hatfield was an employee of the school system since 2010 and began serving as a teacher last school term. He also served as the middle school boy’s basketball coach.
Director of Schools Dr Dan Lawson said Hatfield has agreed to repay the district the gross salary he earned in the position he was not qualified to hold.
