The Education Wars

Two teacher's aides have been charged with abuse of special education students.

Thanks to our revolving door public education system, more and more of these mental misfits find jobs.

Fortunately, cases like this are still rare.

This comment hits it on the head (typos from original):

The teachers who wittnessed the acts of abuse and did not report them immediatly should be charged and fired. All school staff members are mandated child abuse reports in most states. This makes me sick. I don't think the aid who emailed the mother is much better. Why did she not go to a supervisor and get this to stop, why did she not call the department of human services. Sure she notified the mom, but she dropped the ball by not notifying the principal and police. I am a teacher and I have on more than one occassion in the last 15 years called others to task and reported the abuse to higher ups.
