The government only allows approved optics, thank you.

Your tax dollars at work.

Sounds like the school principal needs to spend a night or two in the jug to re-consider their suspension of the student.

“I will drop you… You don’t know me, that’s all I’m saying. So, don’t give me no look.”

At least she used proper grammar.

Pretty good education.

Read the rest of the article. The suspension was lifted and the teacher was removed.

..they publish and print the little girls name, but the teacher escapes

[jimpick]

I home school for a reason.

Must be the fact I would be charged with assault.

The last thing these jerks should have done was to suspend the student.

“don’t give me no look.”

“So, don’t give me no look.”

This is why you want to home school your children.

You missed the key part:
“Luckily, thanks to Ms. Cooper’s mother, who fought the suspension, it was eventually lifted. The school, after looking at the evidence, also took action against the teacher.”

Whistleblowers will not be 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.

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.

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.
