Good grief, Patrick came home all the time with tales about how no one was working in that class.<BR/><BR/>I let it go, because I know Patrick is an A student (mostly) and can do the work. <BR/><BR/>The school pulled in a lady from the cafeteria to teach for the rest of the year. I guess she knows Spanish. (!?) Which would qualify her to teach IMO. But whatever.<BR/><BR/>I think there is a definite time and place for student activism. I'm glad this time it was bestowed on a worthy recipient. :]Happy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10348701.post-26826209754748870732009-01-05T21:12:00.000-08:002009-01-05T21:12:00.000-08:00No mention of his success or failure as a football...No mention of his success or failure as a football coach? Was he tenured? If not, there is not a thing he can say about being "fired". They can non-renew any non-tenured teacher. But, it sounds like a really, really screwed up district. Bravo for the students and community for launching this recall. Is CTA on board? <BR/><BR/>The school district I taught in for four years in Arizona had four superintendants in the four years I was there.....Dan Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13397636504405471939noreply@blogger.com
