You are absolutely correct.

Although I later got a teaching certificate, I took my college classes as a physics/chemistry major, not a teaching major.

The teaching majors in my classes took a watered-down version of the tests we took and received better grades for less work.

As a sub, I sometimes correct the lesson plans of the math and science teachers I sub for (it really pisses some off but some appreciate the help).

The type this teacher is the type that we need to seek removal by any legal means necessary.

Whether it is multiple complaints, unending letters to her and her supervisor - whatever. It could also mean like-minded parents banding together and suing her personally for violation of first amendment rights. Legally gather as much publically information about her as possible: credit searches, social accounts, etc..... and use it against her.

A tyrant like this needs to be stopped. It doesn’t matter how it is done as long as it is legal...

God, I wish we had someone on ‘our side’ who is rich AND smart enough, AND dedicated to Freedom enough to do stuff like that.

You mean he might have sculpted like this? It would be an OUTRAGE!

POST #1 Can only be described as painful clarity!

I believe such accuracy is unlawful. Don’t be surprised if you receive a federal court order requiring you to speak in befuddled terms for the remainder of the term.

In 2nd grade my grocery bag school book covers were adorned with collages of WWII battles, tanks, guns, ships, planes, etc.

or the written word - “gun,” at gun buy-back programs, and get a nice gift certificate?

Just make sure you spell it correctly! Some time ago, a bank robber made a spelling mistake, writing "gub" instead of "gun". That got him caught and he spent the next 20 years in the federal pen.

Late Friday afternoon a letter went home with students explaining the incident saying, "A student used food to make an inappropriate gesture."

You know, if my child came home from school with a note like this....I would think someone has lost their minds...

Actually he was released early after the experimental drugs turned him into an orthodox Rabbi.

Ping to the “Another Reason to Homeschool” ping list.

So?.....Where are the so-called “conservative” and “Christian” teachers protesting this? You know who they are. Those who claim to love the children so much and to have had a specially calling from God to work in the godless K-12 school.

( Just wondering.) Gee! It couldn't possibly be a “calling” to collect a paycheck and generous pension. Could it?

Obama using fake Twitter messages in fight over gun control

---.. "Obama's anti-gun campaign is a fraud," Stockman said. "Obama's supporters are panicking and willing to do anything to create the appearance of popular support, even if it means trying to defraud Congress," he added. "I call upon the president to denounce this phony spam campaign."

… Two of the tweets were sent at nearly the same time, and both follow just one person: Brad Schenck, Obama's former digital strategist....

He should have gone for the gold and made pastry bullets too.

He does this in school and is suspended, but if he'd made it at home, the artsy-fartsy community would look on it as art.

If the kid had used sign for the letter “L”, he would have probably gotten the death penalty. Makes me glad my kids are grown, and that I don’t have any grandchildren to be brain washed by the morons teaching today.

well ask metmom why she booted me off her ping list. Maybe she didn't like the fact that she got dissenting opinions.

I’m a teacher and my son has ADHD. I can say with complete honesty that teachers have no concept of learning disorders, mental/physical disabilities, etc. Some of the most ignorant statements that I’ve heard regarding ADHD have come from teachers.
