[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Latest thing I heard about Oakridge is that one of the teachers (either fourth grade or third grade) brings her baby to school for the day. The parent who told me know what the arrangement is but sees her come with her baby and leave with her baby. Sorry but that’s not tolerable.[/quote]

But you do realize there’s no way a teacher is keeping her baby at school with her, right? That’s just beyond ridiculous.[/quote]

Dunno. He said he sees the baby enter the building with her an leave the building with her. She was his son’s teacher last year. Im pretty sure his son was at third grade at the time but might have been in fourth grade. Either way she was pregnant last year.[/quote]

"I heard"
"either fourth or third"
"He said"
"pretty sure"
"might have been"

Why post this at all?[/quote]

Either way, she was PREGNANT LAST YEAR. Well, clearly you’ve proved this baby at work thing is true! Eye roll.[/quote]

Yes she was pregnant the end of the last academic year. I was at a birthday party that had Oakridge parents there in around February. The family that invited my family to the birthday had left Oakridge. They were catching up with other Oakridge families and they were talking about the teacher who was pregnant the last academic year. One of the dads was complaining that he sees that same teacher bringing her baby to school in the morning and taking her out of school in the afternoon. Said doesn’t know what type of arrangement she has but sees that baby come in and come out. I interjected stating that that’s ridiculous and that they should complain to Dr Duran. I then learned that they have been complaining and that there is a parent group that was formed and that complained to Dr Duran, the school board etc. No one cares. This was prior to the incident at the outdoor lab which we all know about. I obviously didn’t sit and interrogate him about the teacher and the baby since it seemed to be just part of a larger story of how terrible the school is.[/quote].

The outdoor lab incident was over a year ago. Are you saying this conversation with the dad was Feb 2023, not Feb 2024, and the school year in which the baby was spotted coming and going was actually 2022-2023 (last school year), not this year as originally claimed? None of this hearsay story is making sense, and I'm annoyed that I'm giving it credence by asking this follow-up.[/quote]

Yes they didn’t band together regarding the baby story. They banded together regarding issues with the school in general. The father was just mentioning the baby story to the other parents. They were all complaining about the school in general and telling the parents whose kids left Oakridge that they are still facing the same issues. I was the only parent with no connection to oakridge. I said that this all sounded ridiculous and they should complain to Dr Duran. They responded by telling me that they had been complaining about the school and parents had banded together to complain to Dr Duran and the school board.  I had mentioned the outdoor lab incident as something I had heard about in oakridge but said that no they were complaining to school board before that. The banding together had happened in the past (before the conversation we were having). The complaining about the baby was during the conversation. So no, the parents didn’t band together to complain about the teacher bringing her baby to school to Dr Duran. Plus other than the baby coming in and out of school it didn’t seem like the parent had more info. Get it?[/quote]

Kindly, I think you could have sat this thread out given your lack of connection to Oakridge and extremely secondhand info.[/quote]
