Report: Math Teacher Let Students Buy Grades

Hey he was just teaching these kids an important fact of live, you only need to play the game to get what you want these days, you don’t have to earn it anymore.

I flunked the spelling test. Can I buy a vowel?

If anyone thinks this is an isolated incident and a rarity,think again. This is commonplace across America and if not by actually paying of cash it is done by bringing in extra school supplies to buy a grade.

I had a narcissistic f-word of a teacher who would give a passing grade if the student could massage him into a state of perceived magnanimousness with stories of how they just couldn’t do it with a sob story about their obstacles and lots of begging. Now if there wasn’t enough humility/begging/self-pity then you didn’t earn it ;-) (He really didn’t know how to handle someone who had trouble, over-came it without self-pity, and succeeded anyway. )

Thank you Sacramento City Unified School district; if there’s one thing I learned, it’s that I would never put a child I don’t like into a public school, let alone one I love & cherish. Also, that you can get away with anything except sometimes molesting a child and still get to keep your unionized school teaching job! Woohoooo! Winning!

Hey, the kids were learning our way! Money, money, money will buy you anything and everything. See, you kiddos are the future of the GOP! Remember, screw voting for it; nobody wants to vote, you just buy it or better yet, you take it! Happiness and success is weighed by $$$$$$! Remember, don’t be like those poor SOBs who only net 100k/yr or less and think we in the GOP respect them and that we desperately need their votes – Not! For those people, you are not even worthy of licking the bottom of my boots. Truth be told, if you don’t net over 500k/yr, you don’t need to be in the true GOP – we don’t need your poor white trash asses.

He should be jailed for fraud, but I expect the union will cover for him.

Why not?

All Solyndra had to do was to staple $10K campaign donations to loan applications and the Obama Regime gave $500,000,000 in return.

“…Now thats priceless. What [sic] to know why it’s wrong to vote for the [Democrat] party?”

Priceless, indeed!!! Feasting on the irony, I am.

Re-read Bryan’s post. THAT illiterate hyprocisy is what’s ruining your country…

The teacher was dealing with arrests? Jail time??? And they hired him in the first place? Of course this is much less severe than teachers having sex with students

@ OCMARSHA :

Absolutely Priceless!!

“THAT illiterate hyprocisy is what’s ruining your country”
I couldn’t of said it better myself! Well played, my friend, well played!!

There’s something wrong with buying your way through life instead of working for it? Oh yeah, that’s the liberal way.

Did you perhaps mean ” I couldn’t HAVE said it better myself” ??? Looks like each person trying to slam another’s illiteracy makes an error of their own. Too funny.

Why is it that no matter what the subject someone has to start yammering on about liberals as the root of all evil? I have never heard liberals say they wants to have everything handed to them on a silver platter without working for it nor have I ever heard them say they wants to buy their way through life without working for it. That’s just conservative nonsense and it has nothign to do with this article.

When I saw a senior in H.S., we were required to take a class iin government to graduate. Well, I think I attended ’bout half dozen times. The Red Cross was having a blood drive at the school, and he said anybody who gave blood would get a passing grade. I’m pretty sure I was first in line to signup! And I got a cookie and a cup of juice to boot!

And he put in two or three years before “earning” tenure?

Politicians, judges, corporate executives, and banksters get kickbacks and payoffs all day long and not a peep from the sheep, but some $30,000 a year school teacher wants a few bucks for a passing grade and folks come out of the woodwork pretending to be offended. Paying for good grades is how the real world works. You want something done, you do “favors” for the big boys. The banksters lecture you all day long from their ivory towers about how lazy and greedy we are for wanting social services that our tax dollars were supposed to pay for. Meanwhile, banksters have no dirt under their nails and get their potbellies chauffeured around and they’re telling us about work and lazy. People need to wake up. We hang the petty thieves and appoint the best ones to public office and corporate executive positions. This teacher is just imitating the big banks, the military industrial complex and big auto corporations but on a much smaller scale so the sheeple with low IQs can actually comprehend it. That’s all there is to see here.

There’s something wrong with buying your way through life instead of working for it? Oh yeah, that’s the liberal way.

LOL! So these kids are Liberals because they did this? But wait a minute, I thought the Conservative narrative on Liberals is we’re all too dumb and lazy to even work, let alone have any money. Seems to me the ones ‘buying their way through life’ are on the Right…….

This is just the tip of the iceberg. I wish we had real reporters who would, for just one example, expose the embezzlement of school funds by teachers and administrators. I know for a fact that this goes on to the tune of 5 and 6 figures in these cases.

When we have an amoral leftist group in charge of teaching our children, well, what did you expect would happen?…… Paterno should fry. Just think of how many other democrats walked in on that couch and DIDN’T report it?

He should have made a deal with the athletic dept of the school, he would have made more money making sure the star athletes got passing grades! Tell me i’m wrong!

In my high school we would give the teachers pot for better grades.

I have no problem with this teacher, he is simply giving the kids a sneak peak of how the world really works not the ridiculous land of rainbows and unicorns drivel they try and teach in public schools.

This can only being expected after the attention that student-teacher affairs have gotten. NEA led instructors have switched from sex to cash to barter grades.

Despite assertions to the contrary, this appears to be blatant Republicanism to me. All about the capitalistic aspects, and nothing about ethics if it gets in the way of cash. Is that not the Republican mantra?

I used to teach Math in an East Texas High School and I used to give away lots of “A’s” and “B’s” for free: especially to those kids whose parents were politically powerful and had influence with the School Board. I worked there only one year, and the “A’s” I lavished on those kids was shameful – but really funny from a personal perspective. At the end of a year with me, some of those kids had put in so little effort and atrophied so bad that they had darned near forgot how to count to 10! Meanwhile, the kids who wanted to learn were taught well. They will never forget my Algebra Class: where the smart get smarter and the arrogant go brain dead! Yeah Team!

All of the political nonsense aside this has far more to do with parents who simply don’t care than some political party. If you’re involved you know when your child is having problems with a subject. If all you’re doing is asking what grade your child got on a test you’ve tuned out and given up as a parent. Yes the teacher was wrong and frankly let’s not let the kids off the hook; they also knew they were wrong. But if you surrender all responsibility for educating your child to someone else you’ve failed your child.

Well, now we know how Obama got through school.

Chilling: Interviewer: “Professional opinion — will he ever teach again?”
School Superintendent: (long pause) “Well, I don’t *think* he’ll ever teach again in the state of Florida.

Dismantle Teacher’s Unions NOW!!!
