Maybe this is where kids learn how to snitch.

Years ago when this “testing” game came up...I predicted it’d take only a couple of years before teachers realized that they’d have to revamp their system and cheat to continue their pay raises. So here we are. I would imagine that ninety-five percent of all teachers are teaching how to pass the big test, and not really teaching the real structure we all had back in the 1960s and 1970s.

Par for the course where the government would otherwise expect a fifth-amendment stonewall in a serious scandal and have to resort to expensive forensics to ferret out what happened. But yeah, “my teacher told on your teacher!” As though it wasn’t unseemly enough a mess.

I’m surprised by Atlanta acting like Orlando with every criminal allowed to walk.

Might as well. Even if they convicted teachers of something, they couldn’t fire them, only keep them on paid office duty. This way, they at least keep the bodies in the classroom, babysitting.

From the story...

The immunity will keep the teachers out of prison.

But those same teachers could still lose their jobs, their pensions, and their state teaching certificates.

The color of ones skin makes a difference in everything the social engineers in gov.con do.
I suspect thats why they will not go after the teachers.
Negros and mexicans get away with all sorts of things that whitey would go to jail for.

Criminal immunity: Well! What would they charge them with anyway? Probably a fine at most.
What judge would place a teacher with an other wise clean record in jail for telling kid the snswers to a test?

Immunity from getting fired is another thing altogether.They didnt get that, obviously.

Another thing. This is Atlanta. Why is everyone acting so surprised?. The surprise is that this was discovered, and any effort at all to stop it is being done.

More evidence - as if one really needed more evidence - that the nation’s public school system is run for the benefit of its employees.

Vouchers now!

Immunity from what? Having the report submitted to a committee? I’ve read nothing about criminal charges. All this means is they will keep their jobs and the junta at the top will be reshuffled to other school disctricts.
