Lowell Teacher Gives ‘Extra Credit’ for Good Reviews
September 21st, 2009 -- posted by AlexIt has come to the attention of Lowell Life dot Org that a Lowell High School Chinese/ French teacher has been offering her students extra credit in exchange for good reviews on Rate My Teachers. Since then, she has gotten two pages of ‘good’ reviews. Unfortunately, even that, has not been enough to offset her other unsolicited reviews.
While I am sure that this kind of behavior is consistent with her teaching habits, I am still amazed that teachers of this caliber are still employed at a school as prestigious as Lowell High School. This just further proves our stance here at Lowell Life dot Org that many malicious and immoral practices are continued by the current administration with no entity to hold them accountable.
Since the formation of Lowell Life dot Org, we have been bombarded with hate mail, questioning emails, as well as comments calling for truce, from current administrators, alumni, as well as SFUSD employees. All have been documented and traced, and recorded. Cover ups and harassment activities have gone from subtle to outright blatant. However, our purpose is still the same, and has not changed. Numerous past students, as well as many currents ones, have been done a grave injustice by the current Lowell administration. Enough is enough. Someone needs to be held accountable for their actions.
We will continue to collect, record, and report injustices until someone finally rights these wrongs. Crimes and injustice can only be covered up for so long. Like an infected sore, it will continue to fester and eventually rot if left untreated. Such as the example of this particular teacher that has resorted to ‘buying’ her students’ favor. SFUSD and Lowell administration can try as they may to make us go away, but their actions will never be forgotten.
