RI Teacher Says"I Quit!"

If you've had enough and just can't take it any more, come to Washington in April to Occupy the Department of Education. http://unitedoptout.com/ All welcome!
Originally this video was intended to be seen by the members of the Providence School Board, Susan Lusi (Superintendent of Providence Schools), Deborah Gist (Commissioner of Education in Rhode Island) and, most of all, Chief Academic Officer Paula Shannon.

Now the video has taken on a life of its own. If you agree with what I've said, please pass it on to every teacher, every parent, every public school student and politician that you can think of.

Maybe something will change.

These idiot parents need to TAKE PART in training their poorly behaving, thick skulled kids, period!

[ann stone]

The "behavior disorders" would subside considerably with more corporal punishment. And why should some poor animal have to endure the horror of being a "classroom pet"??!

What happened to Freedom, Courage, and Justice? Gone, Gone, Gone! The leaders of America aren't trying to help America compete with China, they want America to become China! Why? An insatiable lust for power and money, and a media that totally ignores people like Stephen Round.

The government can't balance the budget book and now they are trying to jack our kids, our future, up. I'm taking my kids off the public school system. I'm going to home-school them rather then let the system brainwash and imprison them. Thank you for being an upstanding citizen and teacher.

Common Core is driving out great teachers, replacing them with Borg facilitators and computer screens. We need to stand up against this machine!

Bless this teacher for his dedication to really teaching children. I wish him well.

Obviously a great teacher, a devoted teacher, and what the school systems across America need! Hip, hip, hooray!
