With Obama in office, whistleblowers are routinely not protected

The article is very strangely worded, aside from the strange fact that it names the student but not the teacher. Why is the article quoting the student apparently repeating what was just played on the tape? The article states that the recording was played for the reporter, but rather than tell directly what was heard, the article quotes the student repeating what was just heard—as if she is translating the teacher’s words from a foreign language.
The school district contends the student broke Florida state law by recording in the classroom. That law prohibits recording private conversations but makes no restriction on public conversations. So the school district is in the bizarre situation of referring to a teacher’s talking to a classroom in a state school as a private conversation. And even though the student was allowed to return to school before the full five day suspension, the infraction still remains on her record. If I were the child’s parent I would sue the school and let the courts decide whether the classroom is a public or a private space.
“I read the article, Tonto. What did I miss?”
1. The suspension was lifted.
2. The teacher was fired.
The student was then suspended for five days by the school while the teacher was investigated.
Another “educator” proving that she might be the dumbest rock in the box. And with what has gone on before that is saying something.
Yup, soon your kids will be turning you in.
Sounds like a teacher I used to have as a kid. I found out he ended up in prison for something he did to a student a few years after I left.
