Title: Passing the Trash
Post by HSCIN on 08/03/07 at 3:05pm

I came across this article some time ago and posted it to the HSCIN site. I've seen some discussion on this forum about how school systems that know something harmful about a teacher or other school employee don't put it in their personnel files, etc.

From Reader's Digest: http://www.rd.com/content/sexual-predators-being-allowed-to-teach/

I am NOT alleging anything about anyone with this posting. Simply found this terribly disturbing and thought y'all might be interested.

That was a scary article. Its a pretty sad commentary on our society that we simply send the 'trash' tp the next school, because it is easier than taking care of it ourselves. Maybe interviewing the students from a teacher's old school would be an additional check along with the background. The students usually know whats going on, and if its a teacher thats gone or leaving, they probably wouldn;t have that CYA stuff going on.
