The Matter Of The Principal
February 6, 2010
Ron Sterr, principal of Litchfield Elementary School in Arizona, has found himself suspended. In a fit of frustration from a caustic comment, he penned a letter venting his frustrations. In this letter he accused parents of having children that are either “too lazy or too stupid” to complete their class assignments. The letter went on to discuss children with peanut allergies and emotional concerns due to the death of pets. Unfortunately for Sterr, the letter – which was meant as a joke – was sent home (by accident) with second graders and parents were incensed! Sterr was required to call each parent personally to apologize but still faces demotion and possible termination. click here for limerick
