Welcome Back to School!

Lorie Ann Hill

I know it’s early August but in some areas of the country they are already heading back to school.  And in Wagoner, Oklahoma we have a report of a special education teacher who was arrested on the first day back “after she showed up at school under the influence of alcohol and without her pants.

Andy Rotherham dryly observed: “I blame Common Core.

But hasn’t Oklahoma committed to withdrawing from Common Core?  Maybe he means that he blames the absence of Common Core.  I, as a believer in incentives, blame the relatively low cost of booze and the relatively high cost of pants. Or something like that.

    The first day! This is outrageous! It’s bad form to show up plastered and pantless until at least six weeks into the school year.

    Jay,

    Previously you have claimed that public schools are incapable of innovating. Pants-less teaching proves you wrong!
