MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WREG) — A teacher at Chimneyrock Elementary no longer works for the school following a social media post that caused controversy, the Memphis-Shelby County Schools district said Wednesday.
I learned the hard way early in my professional career to never post anything on social media. Honestly, I tell my kids now as teenagers to make a choice: have social media where you express yourself, or plan on having a career... stupid crap you think is funny and post today could exclude you from a job 10 years from now, when that 'funny' thing becomes socially unacceptable. Ask a few pro-atheletes about it.
"The teacher “fell off the wagon when two nonverbal autistic students were put in my class.” It also says the gummies keep the teacher “away from alcohol.”
A perfectly valid excuse as far as I'm concerned. Far more environmentally friendly than firing up a doobie in class. Gotta think of the little darling's lungs.
Not condoning what he/she (they?/ze?) did, but a couple of non-verbal autistic kids thrown into a classroom where the teacher is not trained to handle their needs? That school principal was just asking for trouble.

Anybody remember the Special Ed kids, maybe a half-dozen or so IN THEIR OWN CLASSROOM?
ReplyDeleteCome to think of it, they were usually the fat kids in school as well, not a lot of normal kids that were even "Husky" in size.
I guess it makes sense that the majority of people now are fat and retarded.

ReplyDeleteThere's a lot we don't go for in TN. It's a FAFO state. Also a right to work state with castle doctrine.
ReplyDeletewhy people feel the need to "post" shit,no matter what it's about or picture of, is just something i don't get.
