One Teacher's Union Ready to Change (Tenure)

This has been a pretty upsetting year for my 10 year old boy (5th grade, and 6th grade advanced math -- two schools). He is considered gifted and his teacher is a crazy person. She says there is nothing that she can do to teach him this year, as he is already reading at post 12th grade level. Her main curriculum is arts and crafts, weaving, knitting, finger-painting, cutting and pasting, and coloring. I expressed this concern at conferences and she said if ...

Anyone have any good ideas for teachers gifts? I was thinking of gift cards, but am always so unsure of how much to put on them. My 1 son has 1 teacher and 3 assistants in his rooom throughout the week (1 full time and 2 part time helpers), so I would need to buy for all 4 of them. My little guy has 1 teacher and 1 assistant in preschool, so I would need for them too. Also my big guy has a bus driver and an assistant so I want to get them a little something as well. Any help or s ...

The teacher is very sweet. She tells the kids in class funny stories about her son and she has put up a chart so the kids and follow the baby's growth in her tummy. She has shared her sonogram picture with the kids, etc. Anyway, one of the moms of the kids in the class has decided that it is not appropriate for the teacher to be talking to her class about her "personal" life and she called the principal and complained. The principal in turn has talked to the teacher ...

That time of year is here again! I am from Illinois and as of Wednesday of next week, my kids will be out of school for the summer (they are 6, 11 and 13). Can you believe it is May already? Where has this year gone? A lot times, when the kids are in school, I struggle to have a productive day. We literally live in the middle of nowhere with the nearest neighbor at least a mile away and no other kids living close. They do play baseball so at least they h ...

First let me tell you that my car has been hit a total of seven times while sitting still, either at a red light or parked in front of my house. I am beginning to think I should have ordered a neon sign in addition to the bright red color when I bought it several years ago. Yesterday (AGAIN) while driving I was making a lefthand turn at an intersection which has two lanes turning left. I was in the extreme lefthand lane and proceeded to go around the corner. Sure en ...

out the window. I am already sick of the slick ads from both sides, the pundits analyses and predictions (I so lost it with Chris Matthews this morning!), the pollsters, etc., all directed by the media and in turn by people with big money interests in one side or the other. My mute button will be getting a lot of use this year. ...

Well, nothing is working on my feet, ankles and legs. They are kind of down in the morning and whether or not I put my compression hose on or not, they balloon up in about 2-3 minutes. I finally got put on Lasix 20 mg for a month and then have to call him again. I don't think it is enough to get my legs down. I can't pee much and still have diarrhea. My potassium is up to normal so they told me last week. I just do not know where to go to find out what is wrong and I know the ...

I am certainly ready for Karma or justice or something. I am sick and tired of the Hilary Clinton's of this world getting away with murder, literally as well as fraud and other such crimes. It goes for all who have used the legal system to get off Scot free. Even Blogovitch from Illinois seems to think he did nothing wrong and wants them to release him. Glad I don't live in that state. I sincerely hope we get the president we deserve, one who is honest and works for the people ...

I want to see if Comey throws Trump under the bus as a payback for being fired or is a man of honor who tells the truth even if it vindicates Trump. Also want to hear the questions regarding Comey's notes and if Comey only kept notes on Trump and why. If he kept other notes, who and why did he keep notes on. Hillary?? If so, will that open a new can of worms for Hillary? ...
