I read your article about kids behaving badly!Ive said it before and ill say it again I think the hole school district heck the hole u.s. school district needs to take lessons from the Clinton school dist.I myself hated school I only have an 8th grade education !But Ive enrolled enough kids in Clinton schools to see what a good school district it was My niece was sent to me in second grade she was getting kicked out of her3rd school i informed the principal of this matter and he asked me to take her home with me for a week and then wed go from there!By the3rd day i got a call from her teacher i said oh know what she do?The teacher says oh no i was returning your call I said oh you must not know about why shes here so i informed her of disrupting class hitting students teachers etc. She says oh no!that would never work.here i said it didn't work. there that's why shes here!She went on to tell me she was an angel one of her favorites!My niece returned back home after 2yrs she was on her way to being a wonderful student and young lady She kept an A average and graduated and is now in college!You show me a child from the ghetto put into a white dominate school for 2yrs who couldn't spell 2 letter words that could completely be turned around And ill show you Clinton schools!The teachers hug the children as they come in and go !Ive seen grown men teachers cry when the kids graduate and tell them they loved them and there doors where always open no matter the problem The principal huged each student before giving them there diploma!Principal eats lunch with them reads to them plays with them at recess!I cried when my son graduated because i knew what he was leaving his other FAMILY! I have never seen kids fight you to go to school sick or not!Wake up people kids don't skip school because of parents or friends its the teachers!Think about it teacher's sometimes spend more time with our kids than we do!!!If we had more teachers who cared like ours the world would be a better place !So put the blame where it lies not on the kids food illness ECT. Its the teachers!If i would have had teachers like this i would have graduated!Kids aren't any different today then they were ten yrs ago! The TEACHERS are!!!
