🚨WHAT ON EARTH?!!
The TEACHER OF THE YEAR in Nashville TM just walked away from her career B says the district ORDERED HER TO FABRICATE GRADES.
She refused. So they went into the system and CHANGED IT THEMSELVES.
According to the teacher, a student didn’t finish a project. Hardcastle (the teacher) gave the grade the student earned.
Then a parent came in and SAT IN THE OFFICE FOR HOURS until that grade changed.
Three administrators huddled up and decided the AWARD-WINNING TEACHER was the problem.
She still refused to change the grade.
So they overrode her and changed it ANYWAY.
She quit in May and put all of it in a three-page resignation letter. It’s public. Read it yourself. She calls it GRADE FABRICATION.
And then she stood up in front of the school board and said the quiet part into a microphone: “Statistics are being skewed to protect the district, not our children.”
Our kids can’t read. Can’t write. Can’t do basic math. But the DASHBOARD LOOKS GREAT.
AND SHE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE.
WSMV4 Investigates pulled the internal emails of Diana Wills, a math teacher at Overton High.
Administrators told her she had to hand failing students a D — over a PAPERWORK TECHNICALITY about parent notification. One kid was told again and again to make up his exams and never bothered. She was on medical leave for most of that semester.
She put her refusal in writing: “What is being done is unethical and could very well be interpreted as illegal.”
THE DISTRICT SUSPENDED HER.
She’s suing them right now.
At MNPS, when a teacher and an administrator disagree about a grade, THE ADMINISTRATOR WINS.
Not the person who taught the class. Not the person who graded the work.
The bureaucrat whose numbers go UP when your kid passes.
