Yesterday, I received this email in my box from another 5th grade teacher. The following was first what the parent wrote (who is either illiterate, or a non-native English speaker):
"Evan and his brother Aaron, have both come home the last 2 couple of days saying the this child name Dakota in the 5th grade is bulling Evan. Evan told me last night that Dakota told him yesterday to "be prepared to get beat after school". I told Evan he needs to be reporting these things and he is suppose to come to you today. Has he done this? Again it takes Evan a lot to ignore these things and Aaron says this Dakota person is continously agging Evan on and when Evan ignores him he just keeps going till Evan explodes. This has to stop! Or I know for sure Evan will snap and someone is going to get hurt or in big trouble. Will you please please look into this!"
The sad thing is, here is the teacher's response to this email, which was cc'd to me (because I am Dakota's teacher), to the Education Assistant, and to the principal:
"This is the FIRST time I have heard of this! No, Evan has not reported this to me. (Our school) is NO BULLING school and this will NOT be tolerated!"
Note that she proclaims our school to be a "NO BULLING" (caps were hers) school. Poor gal. She sent that to me, to the EA, and to our principal. I wonder if any of them caught the spelling mistake (which is even sadder if they didn't...). And that's no bull...
