That is so sad. You guys could have ruined that man's life. :( |
Yeah I know but at least you can somewhat be relieved by the fact that if you know how our school system works its really hard to get rid of tenure teachers. He was "fired" that year but it was more like administrative leave because he was allowed back the following year but just not at that school. 'Lo and behold he ended up at my high school where this group of students was now 9th graders. I remember passing by and seeing him and feeling so guilty...he ended up with some of those kids and you could sense his anger still, luckily for me I got Biology as a freshman and not that class but knowing he at least got his job back the next year didn't make it less bad. I went to school with a crazy set of kids and am now paying my dues by going back to teach in that same school district and working with a similar set of troublesome kids myself.
“When I was 5 years old, my mom always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down “happy.” They told me I didn’t understand the assignment and I told them they didn’t understand life." - author unknown
