I'm ashamed to say that the voters in my community voted for this person; get me out of here. What comes next? Do we fine parents who teachers don't like? Let's double their property taxes. What you work for a living and don't have time to talk to your kids' teachers at the appointed time, during their planning hour 10-11am? That's no excuse. What if your kids' teachers just don't like you or your kids? No excuse. If you still have your kids in public school, you should definitely get a bad parent grade, or at least a stupid parent grade.
