I would like this time to bring you all to a blog that I have recently stumbled upon. It is run by a town local who has spent many years investigating and reporting about corrupt politics and law enforcement. Andy Thibault’s blog, The Cool Justice Report, has recently highlighted a case in which a high school student was stripped of her position of class secretary and banned from every running again, due to her opinions on certain administrative staff. The article is here.
Now I shall voice my own opinion. Shut up and do your job. Instead of wining like a little girl about how some little kid made fun of you on the internet, maybe…oh I don’t know…FIND SOMETHING BETTER TO DO. There are plenty of other issues to be settled in a high school. Stripping a girl of a position she has worked hard for and banning her from ever doing it again, is not teaching anyone a lesson. “Avery had received multiple warnings about her behaviors prior to the Jamfest issue. ¹“ And to think that every thing on this planet came to us without a fight. “Fight for what you believe in.” This is what I have been told my whole life from anyone that gives a shit about what I want to do with my life.
I have had plenty of teachers/administrators that I absolutely did not care for in my life. Some knew and some probably had no clue. And some of you may know that I have absolutely no problem voicing my opinion on subjects. My Freedom of Speech will go to the grave with me and anyone that tries to hinder that will feel the wrath of the aforementioned. Those who complain are only denying their own ironic nature.
Common sense ladies and gentlemen. Turn the other cheeck and stop worrying about what everyone else is talking about. Are you happy with what you are fighting for? Did that student really get under your skin? If so, perhaps you shouldn’t be an educator.
