ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE: Even though Houston, Texas, school Superintendent
Rod Paige ordered all schools in his district to expel violent students
four years ago, teachers complain students who assault and harass them
are still in class. Houston Federation of Teachers union President
Gayle Fallon says principals aren't expelling violent kids since that
decreases funding. A district spokesman denies that claim, saying
schools get $15 per day per student, and "no principal in their right
mind is going to keep a dangerous kid in their school for $15."
(Houston Chronicle) ...Right: not when they can have much more fun
getting rid of kids armed with Advil.
