As Instapundit says if this happened in a for-profit school

Instapundit says: "IF THIS WERE A FOR-PROFIT SCHOOL, IT WOULD BE A DAMNING INDICTMENT OF THE WHOLE INDUSTRY."

Kindergarten Teacher Has Kids Oink At Student For Being Messy starts with:

----------
A Roane County kindergarten teacher who reportedly told students to encircle a classmate, call him a pig and make pig noises because the boy is messy, received a one-day unpaid suspension and had a letter of reprimand placed in her file.
----------

Think of that.  She had to take a day off from school.  The poor teacher, how she suffers.  NOT.

There is such a double standard for public schools.  Because of teacher unions it is almost impossible to fire bad teachers.  So the teacher doesn't get paid one day and the student might be scared for life.

If it had happened in a private school I'm sure the teacher would have been fired, and maybe the parents would have filed suit.

I am so glad we can homeschool.
