You posted on the education thread about the autistic child being handcuffed. I thought this letter to the editor in reference to education in general might elicit some response.

If I read one more time that teachers are responsible when students fail academically, I am going to be sick right on the doorsteps of the Texas Education Agency.
A classroom of 30 students.
28 receive a passing grade.
How is it "the teachers fault" that two fail?
This is nothing more than "laying blame".
It's not the students fault, they all go to school to learn don't ya know, so someone has to get blamed for that failure.
