Reason 138 to Homeschool: Massachusetts Teacher Protests Students at Graduation
Meet Marybeth Verani. This horrible teacher held up a protest sign saying “END WAR” during her own students’ graduation ceremony honoring students who have enlisted into the US Military. While the rest of the student body and staff gave the kids a standing ovation, Verani and another gutless teacher protested.
From WBZTV here:
Two teachers at Dennis Yarmouth Regional High School have touched off a firestorm after holding up an “End War” sign at a school assembly where six students who’ve enlisted in the military were being honored.
Many in the community say the teachers crossed a line and treated their own students with disrespect. The students received a standing ovation, but at that point the two teachers sat down refusing to clap.
Teacher Marybeth Verani defends her protest saying, “I’m showing students in a democracy how to exercise dissent.”
Some students responded by leafleting her classroom with signs saying “Support Our Troops.”
Students say Marybeth Verani talks frequently about her political views, and choosing this public forum now has principal Ken Jenks taking a closer look.
God save us from retarded liberals and their insistence on providing “teachable moments.” That school’s principal better give this teacher a teachable moment by demonstrating to her what happens when you drag politics into your classroom. Teachers are either raping their children or indoctrinating them into a liberal mindset. Why won’t they just teach? Its the easiest job in town.
There’s just not enough hours in the day to smack this many people… RonCo needs to invent a slap-o-matic. But it should be a carbon neutral slap-o-matc and it can’t cost anymore that $19.99 (shipping and handling not included)
“Marybeth Verani, your skin is blotchy and your are gaining a bit of wieght lately. Your dress is tawdry, your opinions shallow and your conduct unprofessional. And you are ugly.”
