Hope she gets a lawyer. "Niggardly" is derived from Norwegian "nygaard," meaning "miser."

It's nice to see the quality of intellects in charge of our government schools.

Dear Mrs. Walker,
I apologize that you probably are a product of this school system and that you are too stupid to use a dictionary. Our upcoming lesson will discuss geographic areas. Now, Mrs. Walker-who-wants-to-bitch-about-good-words, how would you suggest I approach discussing the African nation of Niger or Nigeria? Or the Central American nation of Nicaragua? Please submit your complaints about these immediately so the administration can proceed accordinging (and save me the trouble of wasting time developing lesson plans for these).

Thank you

stated that his mother used poor judgment.

I dare say the principal's quite correct there, the teacher definitely didn't think there were such ignoramusses out there for parents.

admonished Stephanie Bell, who is white, for lacking sensitivity to the school's diverse population and not being aware of cultural differences

Damn, if the principal isn't right again, this teacher was obviously insensitive to these cultural differences. I mean, come on now, she should've recognize that some cultural differences are reflected in differences in rates of illiteracy and ignorance.

Interesting, the principal has been able stereotyped certain parents of member's of the school's diverse population as ignorant. I hope she wasn't foolish enough to tell them so. She would've probably gotten some earfull about disrespectin' them or something along those lines.

It's too bad that she didn't support the teacher, she's just taught the students it's okay to be stupid, and think you're not.
