[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These people are assholes.

That last paragraph about what Kaya said (teacher's child getting a placement) is disgusting when you think of the parent with the deaf child who was denied a placement.  I wonder where that child is now.

We are at one of the schools listed.  Cold shoulder happening pronto.  We pay a ton of money in rent (can't afford to buy) to have our kids in the school.  Really makes me mad.[/quote]

[quote]I must say, I was somewhat taken aback by this request and your endorsement of it,” Henderson wrote in an email to the school’s principal, who had followed up on the teacher’s request.

“Is there some reason that I don’t know about that makes you think I should intervene in this particular case, but not in any other case of teachers or parents who don’t get the result they want in the lottery?” Henderson wrote in an email that was quoted in the investigative report. “How would I explain to other teachers or to anyone why [this] child deserves a spot over any other parent who followed the rules that we all agreed on for enrollment in a limited number of seats? What am I missing here?”[/quote]

Kaya's about to find out that karma is a bitch.[/quote]
