Teacher slams patriotic shirts, kicks students out of class - CrimsonPhantom - 09-05-2017 03:26 PM (Hard to hear, need to turn it up) Quote:A high-school math teacher in Woodstock, Georgia, a northern suburb of Atlanta, was captured on video recently ordering two of her students to cover the Make America Great Again slogan of President Trump or else leave her classroom. http://www.wnd.com/2017/09/teacher-compares-trump-slogan-to-swastika-kicks-students-out-of-class/#B4B5JVux3Tkfjygs.99 RE: Teacher slams patriotic shirts, kicks students out of class - bullet - 09-05-2017 03:30 PM She is an idiot. "Make America Great Again" is like a swastika???? RE: Teacher slams patriotic shirts, kicks students out of class - Fitbud - 09-05-2017 03:33 PM I don't know about this school but in many schools, it is district policy to not allow political shirts to be worn. While she may have not handled it in the proper way, she actually did the right thing. RE: Teacher slams patriotic shirts, kicks students out of class - HeartOfDixie - 09-05-2017 03:34 PM This is much ado about nothing. She's just an idiot. Now she knows and won't try to do this kind of crap again. I could make a sweeping statement about this being the new low bar for many American teachers but we have enough proof of that already.

ONLY if that is policy in this school district. Doesn't seem that it is.

No she didn't, and I'd bet my life's earnings she wouldn't have said anything about an Obama, Che, or Mao shirt. If my kid had her as a teacher and he expressed his own support of Trump, I'd make sure he had a different Trump or MAGA shirt to wear every day for the rest of the year if he wanted to do so.

Exactly. I'm almost sure it is. There has even been a supreme court case about it. The SC ruled that schools can ban anything political that causes a disruption to learning. I would have simply written them up and not allowed them in class until their parents came with a change of clothes.

Well it doesn't appear that type of policy exists in that particular district. The only one causing a disruption was the teacher.

The proper way to address issues with students is to speak to them privately, whether that is done at the teachers desk or out in the hallway. (If she had spoken to them privately, we may never have heard about it) But she chose to call them out in front of the whole class. She wanted to give her POV about Trump. She teaches math, where politics does not come up when being taught. All she did was disrupt the class and take away from her students education.

What's "political" about making America great? Is saying the Pledge of Allegiance political now too? RE: Teacher slams patriotic shirts, kicks students out of class - Lord Stanley - 09-05-2017 03:54 PM Seems like a balanced response from the school district. I have taken the tar off of boil and put the feathers back in the pillow. Also, the pitchfork is still firmly on the hook in the garage. (It's impossible to say if that would have been the response if any of this situation was was reversed, but that's reality of this situation.)

So you're just another little petty tyrant like so many of the others. Maybe you should take a stick to them too? I'm sure you were similarly OUTRAGED!!! about- Barack.... Hussein..... Obama....

And thats a smart policy..... however! not once did she say we don't allow political shirts thus I suspect if it had said "Obama, Change you can believe in" or "I'm with her" the teacher would have been fine. Quote:While she may have not handled it in the proper way, she actually did the right thing. Depends on the policy does it not? RE: Teacher slams patriotic shirts, kicks students out of class - DexterDevil - 09-06-2017 04:37 AM MAGA isn't necessarily patriotic, having been used as a political slogan it definitely is political, having an American flag t shirt is patriotic. That said, teacher is an idiot, it's clear that they were not breaking any policies set in place by the school district and that she needs to be reprimanded for disrupting the class and costing kids the opportunity to learn. RE: Teacher slams patriotic shirts, kicks students out of class - NIUAlum90 - 09-06-2017 06:28 AM Cherokee school district? Shouldn't the SJW demand the name of the district be renamed?? You know, offensive? RE: Teacher slams patriotic shirts, kicks students out of class - Fitbud - 09-06-2017 09:52 AM Some people consider wearing the American Flag disrespectful. Wearing a shirt that says "Make America Great Again" wouldn't be a political statement except for the fact that Donald Trump used it as his campaign slogan. As I have said before, this was decided by the Supreme Court. In that case, the students were simply wearing black arm bands in protest of the Vietnam war. No words. Just an arm band. |
