Teaching Intolerance
Via Liana “5-3″ Heitin here’s an ugly story from Indiana:
An Indiana special education teacher, who is part of a Christian group that wanted to ban LGBT students from the high school prom, told a local television station that she doesn’t believe gays have a “purpose in life.”
There’s more. Read Heitin’s story. Sure is hard to fathom why the suicide rate among gay teens is so much higher than other students…

Special ed teacher should “heal thyself.”

I believe that all students should be treated equitably and fairly. I also believe that everyone has a purpose in life. It is the teacher’s responsibility as a professional to try to understand all students in order to cater to individual needs. The teacher who condemns a student based on sexual preference or orientation is highly unlikely to treat that student fairly or equitably.
