Once again we have teaching moment on how Liberal attitudes lead to the most horrible conclusions. A teacher was rightly fired from her job for helping students cheat on an exam. However, the court somehow came to a decision that said the firing was excessive punishment and that said teacher deserves her job back.
What!
So the court is sending a message to teachers that it’s okay to help students cheat because at worst you’ll be suspended or receive a lesser punishment because termination is taken off the table. This is absolutely insane. How can we trust test scores on state exams ever again if we have this wink, wink atmosphere that tacitly permits this type of behavior? What message are we sending to students that integrity doesn’t really mean anything? On so many levels this decision is horrendous and these judges should be ashamed to show their faces in public! Disgraceful!

This is how our schools are run. If your job depends on test scores, you just boost the scores any way you can. That's why it is a terrible idea to tie money to test scores. It's all about the money, not the education

ReplyDeleteWhat do you expect? Honesty doesn't have high value any more. Neither does integrity.
