Why is it that there is a character assassination attempt on a reputable Principal whom has done nothing but defend the parents rights? Would it be possible to see ALL of the students in question abilities in Math, Reading & Writing?

What kind of contribution will there be if one tiny margin is advocating for less, when the vast majority of students who desperately need to learn our country and its basics are withdrawn from foundations skills?

As far as teachers who are unhappy with newcomers learning how to function in a new country - what are their scores like? What did the 30 year+ teacher’s classroom learn? How were her students? Or did she teach organically and those who didn’t “get it” were passed on to succumb to failure in Middle School?

We have a global community now. When will this click into the psyche? Where is the rigor? Bravo to Ms. Kempster below, obviously an educator who knows deeply the trenches of reaching students in need.
