“I haven’t heard those quotes before. Presented without context, they sound pretty bad but I will reserve judgement until I’ve had a chance to do more research.”

That wasn’t that hard of a question to duck.

Are you me?

I would say 10 years ago it probably would have been mostly a pay issue. Now, all the teachers I know, a raise wouldn’t be enough to right the ship. Teaching to the test, no child left behind, the ever increasing behavior problems with no real way to stop it, the list goes on and on.

Disgusting to see this happen but it sounds like there’s very real evidence and there should be a paper trail to the back accounts of the offenders. We just need the legal system to follow through now.
