I am a retired school administrator, and in every building I worked in teachers or staff propped doors open for various reasons on a regular basis. This, despite the fact that we had numerous trainings and directives instructing staff to not do this. It occurred anyway, and when we (as administrators) took action in the form of various disciplinary actions we were countered at the board level. In fact, it became something of a joke to even try to discipline a teacher/staff member about something like this. I am sorry and feel for the victims and their families, but teachers are their own worst enemies on many levels.
I am glad I am retired, but my advice based on years worth of experience is for families to home school – the public schools cannot be trusted with your children to keep them safe.
It makes one wonder how the timing of the truck wreck and the open door was so precisely coordinated.
publish the name of the teacher! is anything other then a slap on the hand going to be done to them?
For once this ought to be a reason for firing one of those commie pos!
