School choice in not a bad thing....I don't mind that poor kids get some money to go to good, well established schools....but that is not what is happening in Milwaukee.
As expected, people are scamming the system by setting up schools that are FAR worse than any Milwaukee Public School. So, MPS is losing millions of dollars so kids can go to school and do this:
In a letter to state officials, Cooper and four other former employees alleged that Brooks padded student counts at the school and refused to allow staff and teachers to call the police if they feared for their safety.
Students "are allowed to get in the staff's face and curse them out, throw items at them, push the teachers, shoot dice, SMOKE MARIJUANA in the hall and bathroom, roll MARIJUANA in class, SMOKE MARIJUANA at the bus stop, destroy items purchased by teachers, and leave school at will," the former teachers and administrators wrote.
At another point in the letter, they added: "Even after suspending, or expelling students Mr. Brooks would always bring them back in and tell us 'That's my money,' 'You (expletive) with my money,' 'Leave these students alone as long as they are not KILLING YOU.' "As a result of the letter, the state's Department of Public Instruction has asked the Milwaukee County district attorney's office to review the letter and possibly investigate Northside. Assistant District Attorney David Feiss said Friday afternoon that he received the letter.
MPS is bad enough when it comes to letting kids get away with things, but this is worse. Once again, I don't think most of you understand what happens in an inner city school. Kids have NO sense of right and wrong...it is a gang mentality. If they all are bad, then they ALL can't get in trouble.
If you don't want to comment on this story, how about the fact that many bleeding hearts will blame teachers, blame racism, blame EVERYONE BUT the kids and parents....any of you liberals who want to make excuses, go visit your local inner city public school, and maybe spend the night at a inner city neighborhood, then continue your ignorant rants about racism.
