Of course it is a problem when students assault others. How is that relevant to a school administrator's violation of FERPA?[/quote]

Pretty sure assault is a felony in most jurisdictions.  That's pretty serious, and I'd argue more serious than FERPA.

And don't you think it's a problem for the media and others involved outside of the school to cover up and lie about the assaults?[/quote]

You know, if you just said, "Yes, Eva Moskowitz broke the law, but I don't have a problem with that." -- that would be honest.[/quote]

I'm no FERPA expert but given she didn't actually name any names or release any PII details, I'm not convinced she broke the law.

You know, if YOU just said, "Yes, I don't care that there was an extremely violent student attacking teachers and fellow classmates, and I don't care that the media lied about that and spun it, because I hate charters so much that the ends justify the means, even if that means lies and people being physically harmed" - now, that would be honest.[/quote]
