WE CAN’T TEACH OUR STUDENTS THAT THIS IS NORMAL
Early this morning I walked to my classroom feeling refreshed from enjoying a three-day weekend with my family. I was looking forward to taking on the day with my new batch of students for this semester. I unlocked the door, turned on the light, and that refreshed feeling vanished.
Here’s what I walked into.
The books were carted off to a “secure location” in the office. After school I was allowed to get my books, but I had to be escorted to my truck so the Assistant Principal could watch me load up my vehicle and remove them from campus.
We’re just following the policy. My admin insists that we have to follow the policy.
I guess that’s the definition of tyranny. Just following the policy, blindly.
