HOUSTON - Michael Garza's parents say they weren't sure who to believe, their 8-year-old son or his reading teacher Savonya Depland Haston.
-snip-
After Michael calls the reading teacher "ma'am," Haston is heard on the tape replying "I'm not your ma'am. If I owned you, and you were my slave, I would beat you down."

On the tape, you hear her tell the class of 7 and 8-year-olds she could have charges filed against them and their parents for lying and violating her civil rights.
"When you lie on me, I have the right to an attorney, I have the right to file charges against you and your parents. I have the right to take you straight up to the top of the Grand Jury and the federal government and file charges against your parents and garnish whatever wages are in your houses; that's the law," the reading teacher is heard on the tape telling the classroom of second graders.
So what did the Houston Independent School District decide to do about Mrs.Haston?
Houston
"When you lie on me, I have the right to an attorney, I have the right to file charges against you and your parents. I have the right to take you straight up to the top of the Grand Jury and the federal government and file charges against your parents and garnish whatever wages are in your houses; that's the law," the reading teacher is heard on the tape telling the classroom of second graders.
Reassigned?
She needs her fat ass fired!
This is the result of Obamna worship in the public schools.
WTH???
Amazing...
Is this a trick question?
Answer:
* Promote her with a bump of $100k in salary, pension, benefits.
* Put her in charge of teaching mandatory Obama Anthems.
* Have the parents & children jailed for Thought Crime.
“”When you lie on me....”
As in “If you lie” or “lying on top of me” ?
I izz cornfused ;-)
Sounds like the ACORN gangsters are finding their way into the public schools.
Houston parents should be outraged.
Parents to teacher: “I have your voice recorded with these threats. If you ever speak to my child like this again I am going to have your job and then I am going to break your neck.”
I’ll take the first one for 400, Alex.
Something similar happened to me at the hands of a black teacher in a Dallas public school in 1972.
It’s good to know that tradition isn’t being ignored.

Excuse me...this is pure threatening of small children. Children suffer severe emotional distress if they fear the stability of their home is in jeopardy.
She is telling these 6 yr olds that SHE has the power to take the very food out of their mouths, make them homeless. This is pure child abuse and she should be FIRED immediately.
It’s an interesting new age of under cover journalism. 20 year olds dressed up as prostitutes and eight year olds with hidden tape recorders, while CNN invents stories of Tea Party racism.
“The right thing in this case is immediate removal, immediate termination,” said Quanell X, Community Activist.
“I don’t care if the teacher is African American or not, said Quanell X. “She is wrong, wrong, wrong!”

More incredible video and audio here: http://www.39online.com/news/local/kiah-controversialcomments-story,0,6418550.story
On a sane planet, that would have already happened.
This is absurd. I was raised to say yes ma’am and yes sir. I raised my daughter to do the same. I have raised my grandson to do the same.I would love to tangle with this teacher.They would have to find the blueprints to put this school back together.
a video camera should record every class. Any parent should have the right to view the video. I had a teacher when I was in 2nd grade divide the class by how smart kids were, and call her bad side retards.
And..make the children feel as they are responsible for putting their families in peril. What a shame.
No, that is NOT the teacher in question.
This teacher needs to learn the Bill of Rights and some Constitutional articles.............
to become a legal expert at ACORN!List to the tape at the link.
And to think... 
I went to school in Houston ISD back when all teacher did was whack your hind end when you did wrong!
Contact information for the Houston Independent School Board:
I think we should be melting their phone lines down about Savonya Depland Haston, the despicable human being that calls herself a teacher.
Thanks, I’ll ask the mod to pull the post.
Holy crap, I jumped the gun and thought the teacher was black....OOOPSY!

Computer Technologist- DeChaumesElementary School
Hello...I am a Computer Technologist at DeChaumes Elem. member of the North District Vertical Team, Vice President of ATPE Houston Local Unit, University of Houston Century Club Alumni. Just for the record I wear many hats for my school and for several organizations.
I read an article once that most public school teachers finished in the bottom 25% of their college graduating class. I think they were giving them way too much credit.
Aw, c’mon. Give her a break. She teaches _reading_ not _grammar_. /sarc
We need to take the schools back from the NEA. Children shouldn’t have to be abused just to make sure someone has a job.
According to the video, it is!
She was reassigned as she’s “protected”.

Look at page two...she was once the VP on the executive board.
Well, THAT's a surprising statement from ol' Quanell.
Hey - give it a break! She's a reading teacher. She don't have to talk good.
This child abuse plain and simple. Charges need to be filed and her minority ass needs to be in jail.
Seriously, this is what happens we ass-kickings aren’t handed out in situations that deserve one.
Perhaps some irate parent could “gently” talk to this evil bitch face-to-face about the mental anguish their child has suffered.
“When you lie on me, I have the right to an attorney” With this statement she must be talking a civil suit, and she doesn’t have the right to an attorney in that case.
“I have the right to file charges against you and your parents” Lying in grade school is not illegal.
“I have the right to take you straight up to the top of the Grand Jury and the federal government” Lying in grade school is definitely not a federal felony offense.
“and garnish whatever wages are in your houses” Now we’re back to a civil suit?
So aside from how mean this was, they’re keeping a teacher who has absolutely no clue whatsoever how our legal system works. She seems to think the government is there to do whatever she wants for her. Must be a liberal.
“reading teacher” my eye!
More like ebonics teacher.
I don’t know anyone who speaks as poorly as this idiot.
They're just playing from Stalin's playbook like good lefties.
Benders says that is the teacher...Im confused at this point.

Unquestionably true.
There is a picture here of her on pg 12 of this. (Sorry, I don’t know how to post pics.)

Well the HPD did solve his brothers murder ...finally...maybe he is getting a little sanity. Operative word “little”
He’ll revert back, bet money on it.
If you have elderly family members currently residing in retirement homes, please check on their safety. Their caretakers may well be Obama voters and we have seen many abuses as of late, especially of those unable to defend themselves.
