Oh, the DOE lawyers are at it again. Throwing the proverbial spaghetti on the wall and seeing what will stick.Yet another teacher's frivolous 3020-a charges have come across desks of the SBSB news team. We are not in a position to share details of the case nor the teacher as of yet. However, one spec did catch the eye of The Crack Team (click to enlarge):
On or about and between September 5, 2018 and May 13, 2019, Respondent yelled at student(s).
We here at SBSB wish to know was the teacher yelling at the students on weekends and days that school wasn't in session or just days that school was in session. Was this one continuous yell for eight months, or was a series of yells?
Which student(s)? Usually, in the specs it gives Student A, Student B, and so on. There is nothing. In fact, it might be one student or more than one student. The dicktards at Legal don't know? Shouldn't they?
In fact, define yelling. Is it the Tarzan yell perfected by Johnny Weismuller or Carol Burnett? Or more along the line of Lou Costello yelling for Abbott?
There are 250 days from September 5 through May 13. Minus the 72 weekends days, and that comes to 178 days. Let's subtract 28 vacation days, and that comes to 150 days. That's ONE HUNDRED FIFTY TWO instructional days between September 5, 2018, and May 13, 2019 that this teacher MIGHT have yelled at a student(s).
Can you imagine a REAL lawyer asking a witness, "Where were you on the night(s) between September 5 and May 13?" Hilarity would surely ensue in the court.
When you got nothing, better find something, anything, and take it out of context and make it seem something. That's what these so called lawyers at the DOE do. They take anything and use it to destroy a teachers career and their lives. Why, you may ask? It's simple. Because they can. Unimpeded.
And they can't do it alone. If there were enough of a ruckus from the UFT, this could stop. There should have been language in the contract, that was agreed to just less than a year ago, that would have put the brakes on the arbitrariness and capriciousness of charges brought by the DOE "lawyers."
But meanwhile this teacher is now forced to roll the dice with their career.
How much longer?

Seeking help regarding joint burden of UFT and NYC DOE to review and define Orientation to the job of Teacher.
This matter has gone to Arbitration...UFT has refused access to this important information.
Arbitrations have reviewed this matter...and determined that the sheet of paper given to some Techers....in the first week of school...IS NOT
adequate. (I was told this by a "mover and shaker" at the UFT) When I sought to pursue this...I was informed that the "higher-ups" had issued a gag order.
This is very, very important!!
S.O.S.
