2 Humped Camel Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 What makes that a case, many people win that award. That means that they are a good teacher. Black, white, purple, male, female, gay or straight. They are there to be a good teacher and that is all that matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlDog75 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I think I would pull my kid out simply because I don't want him/her or my family to have to deal with the sideshow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are there to be a good teacher and that is all that matters. Isnt it kind of like getting to be a memeber of the National Honors Society. Pay and your in. There are plenty of good teachers who dont take the tim eto fillout the applications for this. I bet if he had come out before that big huge award that he/she wouldnt get that big huge award. Meant to say a Who's who Award. Edited March 25, 2014 by mountain ref Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice guy in high school and seems to be a pleasant if masculine looking middle aged woman , remember we are 66 years old , and I have talked to her once or twice since I found out who she was .
