A school district lawyer in North Carolina has been suspended, with pay, amidst allegations that he may have played a key role in the district's reported failure to notify law enforcement authorities, as required by state law, of allegations of improper conduct toward a student by a teacher. Authorities are now investigating an incident months ago in which a teacher allegedly touched a student's leg, reports the Winston-Salem Journal. The principal at the school reported the incident to the district's lawyer, Drew Davis, according to the principal's lawyer, David Freedman. However, Davis told the principal to do nothing further, Freedman contends. Davis, declined to comment, the newspaper says. The school district is changing its reporting policy and from now on principals at schools to which a police officer is assigned will report such incidents directly to the officer.
Mr. Price, President of I.F.F.O.C. (Independent Federal Fund Oversight Committee) and K.C.E.A.J. (Kansas Citizens for Equal Access to Justice) thinks this gives new definition to the no child left behind policy. Evidently, the schools are still under the protection of each state and believe what the parent doesn’t know will not hurt them. Better defined as, plausible denial ability. Administration and their own policies, the art of confusion is illusion. Somewhere are children are not getting the right message and ideas from the Department of Education’s confusion and their own policies, Which now bring to question getting back to the basic education, and less academic credits, and more basic credits, to assist our children in achieving their educative goals.
