Students Can’t Fail, But Administrators Can

More proof,as if we needed it, liberals can't lead flies to s#!t. Sad when the students are smarter than the administrators.

Yes, Clyde - and this is right HERE

This story struck me as being more at home in Oakland or San Francisco - not in Dallas. Seems that liberal UN-thought is catching and I guess we caught a bad case of it.

Ugh

I heard this today on the radio and could not believe this.

I was a teacher for five years. I taught graphic design. Every project was a tight deadline as it is in true life. I did not accept any late projects. And I was extremely hard grader. The students liked that because they felt that one, I cared about them, and two, they really earned their grade, it was not given to them. They felt a sense of pride.



That's the difference b'tween us & them

Sue, you did right by your students - tough love. If they didn't appreciate it then, they will as they mature and find that you prepared them for the real world. This crap in Dallas is a prime example of how the libs "feel" about things rather than the way life really is - the kids in Dallas classrooms will ultimately pay the price for the stupidity of the board. Sad.

the frontline of the culture war

is Academia and Journalism. clean out the nests!

Acedemia is the source

I suspect that even Journalism has its roots in the liberal Acedemia. This is really a bad situation. Liberalism has planted their minions into the lives of our children at early ages so they can gradually shape them into mind-numbed lackeys. Where do they get any opposing view? I hope that parents (conservative ones) recognize this indoctrination and counter it with truth.

When the NEA opposes something

I usually knee jerk the other way. But wow, this is pathetic. It must be a part of the educational system to demand that students learn to overcome the procrastination that is inherent in all of us, a system that fails to teach that might as well not exist.

Right Wil, me too

The NEA and I don't agree on much but this crap is beyond belief. Fortunately, I live in a suburb north of the city but I still find it hard to believe that California thinking has invaded Texas.
