SUPPORT THIS PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHER
From the unbelievable public school follies file. Well, actually, entirely believable:
A Gwinnett County teacher was fired early Friday after refusing to raise a student athlete’s grade he lowered because the student appeared to be sleeping in class.
The Gwinnett County School Board voted 4-1 early Friday–after a marathon Thursday night meeting–to fire Dacula High School science teacher Larry Neace, said school system spokeswoman Sloan Roach.
Blogger Winfield Myers has been following the story and has much more.
Students are trying to rally around Neace. 114 of them have signed a petition asking for his reinstatement.
Contact info for the Gwinnett County School Board is here.
