Done to teach a lesson to one kid who was snooping in a teacher’s desk.

those involved "realize their error ... they're owning the problem."

Oh. Fantastic. That means its all right then. Whew!

Wow, reading some of the reactions by the parents makes it clear why government schools are allowed to get away with the crap they pull every day. The wussification of the free world is in full stride. What a bunch of weak-kneed wimps. I feel more for these kids more because their parents are spineless than I do for what these idiot teachers did to them.

Only one thing for teachers to do now...they have to pony up for the real thing

This reminds me of that company that held a raffle and led some woman to believe she had won a new car, and then they took her into a conference room and presented her with a “toy Yoda” (the Star Wars character). She sued.

The kids, ecstatic by now in anticipation, were urged by the teachers to yell out where they were going: "We're going to Disney!" That's when they were told to look at the last slide, which announced their 2013 field trip wasn't to a fabulous Florida funland, but to a Windsor bowling alley.

Bowling? is that appropriate for 8th graders?

"It's a very intimate situation! It's all sexy with the smoke, and the sweating, and the shoe rental..."

I say take the kids to WDW with $ from the teachers’ pension

Very likely the most important lesson these kids will ever learn in their public school.

“He said part of his weekend was spent convincing his three children that “this is not the norm” and that teachers, as authority figures, should continue to be respected and trusted.”

Remember Children, the government is your authority figure and should be respected and trusted... because... you have no other choice.

“Bonnie Stewart, mother of twins who attend Grade 8 at Roseland, came home at 5 p.m. Friday to find both her kids already in their beds. She woke her son, who told her everything.”

8th graders in bed at 5:00pm on a Friday? What the.....

[Ken H]

HA-ha!

[yldstrk]

just what you would expect when dumb idiots get put in charge. I think their utter lack of honesty and empathy should get them fired, every last one of them.

Whatever happened to "Question authority"?

This father definintely drank the kool-aid

[who knows what evil?]

"I have a lot of respect for teachers..."

Live and learn.
