Can anyone explain why this teacher still has a job?

Teacher encourages 5th grade students to make Christmas cards to send to lonely people, gathers them up, and sens them off to an inmate who was actually charged with possession of child pornography. These cards contained the names and return address of said children, and the teacher told the kids they might actually become pen pals.

For some reason, even though the school wants to fire her, they can't.

it's almost impossible to fire a teacher in nyc

 

Holy shit!

She should be hung!

 

Because they are finishing up the paperwork (per the article).

 

I would think hooking kids up with a potential child molester would be enough to do it.

 

Thank your strong teacher's union for this kind of horse shit.

 

Must...... read........ article........

 

Why did the teacher still have a job when the article was published Feb. 16? Probably because the investigation didn't conclude until Feb 15 (http://www.nycsci.org/reports/02-12 Dean Melissa Ltr.pdf). The teacher was apparently removed from the classroom immediately after her alleged acts were made known to the school district. I don't see any evidence that there was anything wrong with the school district's response to the incident.

 

Yeah, Stupid Bitches have nothing to do with it, it's the Unions fault! ..a-a-and Obama!

 

We still have a thing called due process correct? I'm going to have to throw you all in prison until I get this checked out.
