  1. His was even worse given his position at a middle school.

     

    Here is the video he posted: https://vine.co/v/MTaaKTeLxnb

     

    And here is what he said: "can't stop watching this! Damn, big girl got smacked!!!"

     

    He also used the same emoji 4 times in his post. That particular emoji is called “Face with Tears of Joy” and it means (according to many online definitions) “A smiling face with curved tear filled eyes that are mostly closed and open mouth. Upper teeth are shown. To be so happy that you weep tears of joy.”

  2. To me it shows laziness more so than a lack of intelligence. I know a lot of brilliant people who can't spell words well, but they are thoughtful and meticulous enough in their writing to spell-check and grammar-check things before sending them. If you are typing a bio that people are going to read, I would think you'd diligently have it combed over to avoid, at the very least, simple misspelled words.

     

     

    I hear you and agree on one level, but there are more than just misspelled words.

     

    "of having you child in my..."

     

    "I hope that by the end of the year, you child will have a..."

     

    ...and there are more.

     

    I feel that certain basics are a must IF you are a teacher, regardless of the subject. How can the kids be held accountable if not?

  3. Should a Middle School teacher (with more than 10 years teaching experience, a BA and a Masters degree) be expected to spell correctly... and use correct grammar and punctuation? How many misspelled words are acceptable on their staff directory profile?

     

    A teacher at my son's school has at least 12 misspelled words and grammar and punctuation errors that, honestly, have me startled. Is this acceptable?
