Me, again
By Meg

It's me, Meg, again. It is high time someone finally opened their mouth about poor ole Mr. Wong. I was too much of a coward to voice my opinion previously on this board, cause in the past he has seemed to be teacher Deity.
It is good to know that I wasn't the only one. That one page in his book described this fifth grade teacher that was late to school and her kids did all their morning work and had it all stacked on her desk and went to wherever they were supposed to be. And left her a note telling her what they did! Where the heck is this school at?? First of all, the kids should not have been left

alone at all regardless of how "responsible" they were. There, by law, should have been another adult in there supervising them until the teacher arrived. It is against confidentiality laws for the kids to take attendance....Mary Sue could have found out that Jane was absent last week (her excuse note may have been laying there that said "head lice" or something). And I have never in my life seen a class that would have went in and done their morning work and unpacked and went to their next class totally unsupervised. I don't care how "qualified" their teacher was. This was either number 1 a huge, huge exaggeration, number 2 a flat out lie, or number 3 Heaven Elementary.
