Now my thoughts on teaching....
There is a line between being friendly to your students, and being their friend. This distinction was made clear to me by my high school band director. I heard last night of a teacher in a neighboring district that was ENCOURAGING students to make what I feel were inappropriate comments, and so did this parent that was telling me the story.
As teachers, we need to show our students that we care, but also be good examples for them - God knows in my district that there aren't a lot of great role models in our community (we had the mayor that got a DUI, and posed for some inappropriate pictures as well...).
Please also realize, that one teacher does not speak or act on the behalf of all of us. There have been quite a few cases in our area of "inappropriate relationships with students." I am appalled at how a teacher can think that they have so much leeway with ethics, and that anything of this sort is even close to right, Christian, and appropriate. So please, don't think that we are all like that...
Anyways...have a great weekend, and don't forget that Martin Luther King Day is Monday - what are you going to do to promote civility, and harmony, and Christian values in your area?
