MODERATORS
I had a friend in high school who posted a blog about his Economics teacher. She wasn't a nounce, but she was still incredibly weird. Very obviously drunk during class. Would periodically just wander off and leave the room for long stretches of time. Incredibly temperamental towards the students. No discernible lesson plan. So we had this day-by-day log of all the crazy shit that went down in class.
The running joke was that she had dirt on the principle, because that's the only way she could have kept her job.
Anyway, despite this open and notorious record of her terrible teaching, she still hung on for another three or four years before finally getting let go.
I was initially enrolled in a private school, and my first grade teacher was a terrible human being. Not a nonce, but she was really emotionally and sometimes even physically abusive towards students and notorious for this fact. When I was in her class, she actively pursued a team up with a boy who hated me to co-bully me together. This came to a head when the boy pushed me down a full flight of concrete stairs and her response was to laugh and give him a high five. She described the event as "hilarious and awesome."
When my parents and I met with the principal about this, the principal said that they were aware and that it was not acceptable, but that there was also nothing they could do about it because the teachers family was the school's primary funding family and if they fired her, the school would go bankrupt before the end of the semester. This was a large pre-k through 12 private school, as well, so they must have been dumping in hundreds of millions of dollars in order to justify this woman's career. She is, last time I checked, still employed there and still bullying children.

Probably closer to hundreds of thousands, and I doubt any of it was going to the faculty. This sounds like high school principle tier bullshit. Pissing off this teacher might provoke an angry Superintendent to can his ass, but it had nothing to do with the well-being of the school itself.
The future is now
The kids are alright
idk. they shouldn't have to do this. children shouldn't have to be their own protectors.
Diaries are extremely valuable in court. Collectively created or not this is a diary and will be some powerful evidence. Good kids.
No wonder some segment of lib media tries to push the "zoomer cancel culture is out of control!" narrative.
This would have been nice to have when I was in school.
Wow wish we had kids like this when I was growing up
