It’s loud mouths, like this bimbo, that give Leon county schools such a bad reputation. Then they stick out their hands, asking for a raise. Go pound sand! It’s the silence of the teachers who don’t believe in this progressive curriculum that is deafening. Speak up!

Heros? During the covid scare it was teachers that ran scared. The protested and whined about having to go back to the classroom where it was better for the kids. The real heros were medical workers and people that worked in stores supplying you with your needs. They didn’t have the luxury of staying home. They had to face it head on. So you need to step off. You should be grateful that parents care enough to want to be involved in their children’s lives.

teachers are not “professionals” at all, they are unionized employees who want what is best for themselve – not other peoples’ children. teachers work fewer hours than most workers and they get paid more per hour than many genuine professionals. teachers should be paid less because of their lavish benefits, vacations, healthcare, job security and pensions this principal is likely overpaid and just speaking to her base, the so-called teachers get rid of the principals like this and the unions to reform education

Someone tell this principal.

“Parents trusted you to teach, but then they found out you were trying to groom their children. YOU BROKE THE TRUST and now you are paying the price. You need to shut up and quit whining. You did this! Not the parents!”

May is MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS MONTH.
This is very sad to see what is going on with LCSB, TEACHERS, POLITICIANS and others. They should ALL be required to have BACK GROUND CHECKS every six(6) months and also go back to special school and be retrained/trained on what their job positions qualifications were/are. The Bickering should be stopped. What about our children? We are losing our children.

There are many homeschooling programs from which to choose. There are secular programs, religious programs, programs for different grade levels. You can purchase a complete program and receive a high school diploma upon graduation. You can purchase individual courses and get a GED.

You do have to pay out of pocket which I think is unfair but may be way less expensive than you fear. Parents should receive educational vouchers to redeem at the school or school program of their choice. All the money going to traditional public schools is outdated, a poor investment, and not serving the best interest of the public.

And you wonder WHY the Public Schools are failing and the Parents are putting their Kids in Charter Schools or chose to Home School them………THIS is why.

Public schools are the ‘lane’ of state elected legislators and state voters and taxpayers. Public schools are 100% accountable to taxpayers and voters that pay for the schools. Public school students are not teachers kids but the children of Florida citizens. If teachers want to push their transgender garbage on their own kids they are free to do so, but don’t do it on the taxpayer’s dime.

Time for the “tired” whiny principal top get out of the way. Better yet, give the parents vouchers to someone real schools instead of flushing the money down the public ed toilet.

Really, no need for long-winded discussions about this. If Hembree hasn’t already been fired, she should be immediately. Totally unfit to be a principal.
