CCS Headline News - Superintendent's Response to YouTube
I was shocked when I saw the clip of an interaction between a Cumberland County Schools teacher and her students as posted on YouTube. While neutral discussion of the political process is appropriate, at no time, particularly with elementary students, should a teacher infuse his/her political views into the discussion. Most disconcerting was the military slant that made its way into this discussion. We are a military community, serving over 15,000 military students and their families. We value the sacrifices, not only of the military parents but also those of their families.
We believe that military children are our children, military spouses are many of our employees, and military service men and women are our heroes. We proudly serve our military children and have received national awards for our support of military families.
I was particularly disturbed to see the uncomfortable position in which our children were placed due to the inappropriate actions of one of our teachers. Please be assured that the actions exhibited in this video are not consistent with the vision of the CCS. Moreover, the actions of one teacher do not represent the 7000 employees in our organization.
Once the video was brought to my attention, I immediately launched an investigation. Personnel laws prevent me from releasing information regarding individual employees and personnel action taken. I can assure you that upon completion of the investigation, I will take appropriate action.
Dr. William Harrison CCS' Superintendent
Sure, we believe you.
Good for him. Seems to be a timely and appropriate response.
Actions, sir, actions.
When you fire the loon-ess, I’ll believe you.
I’d say she’s a goner.
But she’s black.
Will the “appropriate action” be a gift basket and promotion to school Principal?
She’ll get the Dear Leaders highest proletariat award.
Worse that making comments is her stupidity at believing John McCain meant literally “100 years” when she should know his intent was “we will take as long as it takes to defeat the terrorists.”
All I can say is thank God for JROTC, a good football coach, and a particular History professor in college to help me break through the mind control before it took. God and Parents get the most credit though.
Of course, the NEA will supply her an attorney, but given the video evidence I think she is a goner.
The antidote is massive, massive exposure. If they can sweep it under the rug, they can save her a$$. If we can keep it on the burner, she’s toast.
Who did the video???
The appropriate action would be to have this stupid woman apologize to the little girl infront of all her classmates and then have her explain to them all WHY she was wrong and then FIRE HER ASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She should be made to publicly apologize and then fired on the spot.
What is most disturbing about this video is that the teacher knew the camera was filming. What goes on in the classroom when no other adults are present?
Swedish film company.
Here’s an interesting question. What does it take a Swedish film crew to expose indoctrination in American schools?
But shes black.
And that's the trump card...
