[Vision2020] public school job training

[Donovan Arnold]

Keely,
  
  What precisely did I say that was untrue?
  
  Look it up yourself, MHS had a Coach that was taking bribes. I don't  remember his name. Maybe you can find it out and let us know.  I  had him a teacher. It was on the front pages of the newspaper. Are you  so vain and naive as to believe that ALL teachers of the MSD are saints  and never do anything wrong? But bribes wasn't nearly as bad as what my  HS counselor did, he was removed from CDA HS for sleeping with one of  his teenage female students. And even worse, my First Grade teacher at  a Catholic Elementary school was removed from teaching for child abuse.  Swing a cat Keely, you'll hit at least two people in public service  that are in it for not GOOD reasons. 
  
 But I don't really  care what you think Keely. Never really have. Sorry but that is the  truth. I don't think you are a nice, fair, or honest person, and I  don't think you think you are either. 
  
  Best to you though anyway,

any other widescale forum is despicable.

Clearly, Donovan, you have lost all sense of perspective and civility, and I 
pity you as much as I'm angered by you.

Julie,

   Just because someone is certified by the State of Idaho to teach doesn't 
mean they can teach.

   And yes, the teacher that I had that was also a coach, at Moscow High  
School in 1991, was caught taking bribes to put their sons on the  
basketball team over that other students that should have made the  team. He 
also gave Bs on a paper if you stapled a $5 on the second page  and an A is 
you stapled a $10. That guy was certified by the State of  Idaho to teach. 
Didn't sound like quality teaching to me.

  I  had a guy who was coach at CDA High School. He didn't even know how  
many members of Congress there were, he should not have been teaching  12th 
Grade US History.  His name was Coach Lund.

  True,  the majority of my teachers were good teachers. But it only too sad 
  that the pay scale rewards the lousy ones better than the excellent  ones 
simply because they have been around longer.

   Frankly, I find it unbelievable that you never had a bad teacher in all 
your years in MSD.

   Best,

   _DJA

Donovan once again is making offensive statements with NO supporting 
information.
   He says "coaches that were trying to teach government, history and 
geography".
   All  public school teachers in Idaho are certified by the State of Idaho. 
  All are held to the same standards, just as I was in my teacher  education 
program, in order to obtain this certificate.
   Some teachers are also coaches.  This is true.  Some are not.
   I have not been enrolled in 12 school systems as he claims he has, only 
our own MSD for 13 years .  I had excellent teachers.   Even those who were 
coaches and "trying" to teach, as he put it.   In particular, I had fabulous 
PE and health teachers.  The fact  that some of them may also be coaches 
does not discredit their teaching  abilities.  To me, it shows a true 
interest in the lives of  students and an interest in shaping that person as 
a whole.
