Teacher remained in classroom despite years of sexual misconduct accusations

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Parents are calling for justice after a substitute teacher was allowed to remain in Sacramento-area schools for years despite documented complaints of groping, getting uncomfortably close to female students and inappropriate language.

In spite of the detailed documents outlining various complaints from students and teachers, Andy H. Rivas, the now former Sacramento City Unified School District substitute teacher, was able to fly under the radar and remain teaching children for several years.

Sorry, but with all those reports, he wasn't 'able to fly under the radar', he was allowed by the school board to continue to teach.

    Sorry, WHO elects school boards?

    1. Everyone who bothers to vote, the majority of whom don't have children in the public schools. They aren't paying much attention to who they vote for when they get that far down in the ballot. Worse, in my experience, most of those down-ticket races have only one candidate, and it's hardly ever a conservative or libertarian. These positions attract only "progressives" and others with an unhealthy desire to stick their nose in others business or with a conflict of interest such as working for the teacher's union. Even if the election is contested, if you can find out anything about the candidates, they are both some sort of leftist tool.

  4. ",,,,allowed by the school board...."
    Just like the Vatican relocates pedo-priests to a new parish after paying off the parents and giving the priests a 'stern warning'. Yeah, that always works.

  5. You would be amazed on how hard it is to get almost anybody to become a Substitute Teacher. (Remember when you had a sub in class?) So the Districts will take almost anything that comes thru the door at times.

  6. Gotta agree. That's not flying under the radar, that's getting radar guidance navigation vectors sending him to the next classroom via the most direct route.

  7. "he was allowed by the school board to continue"

    Yeah. Um. Ahh. No.

    He was kept teaching by the union. The government union. And the best government said union buys.

    1. As a teacher's union president once said: Kids don't pay union dues.

      Neither do parents.
