In the early 70s at the university where I went to school those who could not get through a real degree program if the answers were handed to them mostly transferrd to one of two colleges-—the teachers college or the school of journalism.
I am so fortunate I never had to send my kids to public school until they went to university.
Had a similar problem with one of my daughter’s high school teachers in TN. She had, many years previous, won many awards as a teacher, but had turned into a bitter old witch who clearly hated the students she was supposed to teach.
We parents banned together and spoke with management in very strong terms. She didn’t come back to school the next year - personnal reasons. Mostly I think because the parents had collected money to hire an attorney and the schoolboard decided we were serious.
When my daughter went to enroll the next year she was told she could not take any more advanced placement courses. She called me, I bailed out of work and went to see what was going on. The assistant principal says, “well there is a note in her file”. I demanded the note. It was from the now disgraced teacher and said that my daughter was an overachiever and should not be placed in any more advanced placement courses. My daughter was not the only student with a note. Even after the witch was gone, she was causing trouble.
I have NO faith in the public school system. My very bright grandson is NOT going to public school. I was a single mother, it was the best that I could do, but my children deserved better as do the children stuck in those schools now.
I can’t tell for sure what race she is, but she doesn’t appear to be Caucasian, her hair is either white from just age, or bleached.
Even if she hadn’t threatened and abused children, this idiot should be fired for the ignorance she displays on the tape.
“When you lie on me, I have the right to an attorney, I have the right to file charges against you and your parents. I have the right to take you straight up to the top of the Grand Jury and the federal government and file charges against your parents and garnish whatever wages are in your houses; that’s the law,”
I HATE lawsuits, but these parents should sue the school district. School adminstrators need to start fearing taxpaying parents more than the ignorant thugs from the teachers unions.
As in If you lie or lying on top of me ?
I izz cornfused ;-)
Several years ago, I believe it was the mid 70s, the Chicago school teachers were on strike, a T.V. guy was interviewing the picketers and he ask one woman, "What do you teach'?
I'll never forget her reply, she said, "I teaches English'.
WTF!!
most of the kids probably don’t even understand what she is saying..like the word “GARNISH”
I can’t believe she was assigned another class. I hope the Garzas sue..I don’t know what for.maybe intentional infliction of emotional distress. That woman is disgusting.
And talking about owning the kid as a slave??? I can’t tell what race that woman is but it must be part black.
Which side were you on? :-)
Flannel, birkenstocks, and Indigo Girls...
“a video camera should record every class. Any parent should have the right to view the video.”

I’ll take it one step farther and say that there should be a video live feed in every classroom with copies available for parents to download.
I come from the horse world where many people have a live feed on their pregnant mares for weeks or months at a time. The education and safety of our children is so much MORE important that it’s crazy NOT to have live feed of the class rooms.
It would be a wonderful project for the PTA to have bake sales & other money making events to fund and maintain this project!
I don't think that most 7- and 8-year-olds even know what "garnish" means.
However, in Texas, garnishment of wages is not permitted, except for child support payments and "spousal maintenance". It's in the state Constitution.
There are exceptions for certain federal obligations, such as taxes and student loans.
Yikes! If Quanell the Tenth is against her, it does not look good.
Whew! Those second graders can breathe easy.
“A quenelle is mixture of creamed fish, chicken, or meat, sometimes combined with breadcrumbs, with a light egg binding”
Nice comeback!
I was just trying to point out that not only was she being a [non-PC word, that rhymes with "stitch"], she was also just flat wrong.
Yep, that’s the one. Thank you for posting it.
That will never happen. What should happen is the abolition of the government propaganda camps, the utter destruction of their buildings and facilities and sowing salt on the land. And sending every official of every teachers’ union to Devil’s Island (I hear it’s vacant now). Then offer credits of one sort or another to establish scholarships to PRIVATE schools so NO kid gets left out.
