“We have to stop this. This can’t happen in our district at all,” .......
A teacher states a fact and the neighborhood gets upset about the truth. The parents “fix” is to discipline the teacher and not address the drug problem. Granted the teacher (in a math class) should not have brought politics into the classroom. I would venture a guess that 75% plus in that class are illegals.
Well, I’m a teacher here in L.A. too, and here’s the thing: Sometimes the kids ask you for your opinion. Your options are to lie, to tell them you’d rather not say, (which makes them suspect the worst), or say it as carefully as you can.
