I wonder how many other so called teachers across the country have cheated to get their certificate? Two of the falsely certified teachers were sex offenders using false ID's.

From what I’ve seen in many teachers, I’m sure this happens from coast to coast.

LaShon and the others at Booker T Washington school that hatched this scheme got sexual deviants into schools, because they had no ability to have ever been teachers, otherwise. 200+ people were fraudulently given credentials for money.

There are online schools in Nigeria that would be more legitimate sources of US teaching degrees.

And, yeah, it seems like the people in charge all had “LaShon-type” idiot names.

Houston ISD corruption? What a surprise! There’s a reason that the State had to take it over. Corrupt from top to bottom.

All loyal union members - probably leaders by now.

Booker T Washington is disgusted that his good name is associated with this racist crap.

Why not just come out and say what you think, that your black brothers and sisters are too stupid to be teachers on their own. This is why Booker wanted black people to get an education in the first place.

“The color of crime”.....false academic credentials are the hallmark of the black community. A few earned their credentials honestly but the majority have been given their status by affirmative action and dishonesty. Plagiarism is rampant as a homage to MLK,Jr.

When my daughter was in 1st grade, we’d rent a movie and she’d know the story line ...we asked how she knew and she said her teacher “had some bad days” and they would wheel in a TV and VCR.
Then we saw spelling exercises where the correct words were crossed out by the “teacher” and we were told, the treacher would write the words on the board and they were supposed to copy them - if they saw a misspelled word and corrected it on their papers they got docked.
We and others complained and the school decided it had no choice but to test the teachers - a teacher friend of ours told us they had 2 women on either side of the bad teacher to insure she passed...
I guarantee it’s wide spread with the dumbed down “teachers’” unions in charge...

Texas Ping, the Best State in the USA!

A ping out to the Texas Ping list, founded by Windflier.

From the comments:

Um... it doesn't surprise me that hundreds of people too dumb to pass a teachers' certification exam would WANT to cheat. But it absolutely surprises me that the organization tasked with securing and guaranteeing the veracity of these exams could fail so miserably at such a simple task. It's not like the didn't know that people would try to cheat. So who is holding the TESTING authorities to account here??? There should be both civil AND criminal charges here.

Criminal charges from Kim Ogg, Harris Co prosecutor. Worth watching.

Another special Texas summer edition for your perusal.

As always, please FReepmail me if you want on or off the Texas Ping list.

Blessings, and stay cool!
