Hello
The article is about the loss of an LA teacher to suicide after the LA Times managed to "out" him for being both an excellent teacher apparently, and the bane of all children he taught.I have been watching the LA Times conduct these odd forums on its actions on-line with amazing insensitivity as I read things my husband forwarded. He's about as shocked/appalled as everyone else..and what he has to say about the paper is succinct-cancel it.After reading them editorialize in several columns justifying their score printing as if they'd "solved" the biggest issue of the day by taking a flawed value added system.
