What kind of incompetent principal reacts to trouble making elementary schoolers by calling the cops on them?
This article:
https://www.texasobserver.org/why-was-this-11-year-old-honor-roll-student-put-in-solitary/
Should shed some light on the subject. Particularly:
So, in answer to your question:
A nepotism hire with a vindictive streak.
Jesus Christ, I didn't even know dynastic public school administrators was a thing...
The DA that’s refusing to drop charges shares the same last name.
This ain't incompetence, this is a power trip. She also called CPS on a mother for questioning her special education needs program
I agree.
Some background on Myrta Garza:

Excuse me but what are those dreams exactly 🌚
Also, the interior of the photo in the second article looks posh, I wonder if it's a school interior.
I would guess it is Rachel Ayala's dining room.
Is this kinda... weird? I remember liking to help my dad out once in a while with simple tasks since I had to stay with him at work, but I don't know how I'd feel about doing it every day.
I don't know if I would say "weird". I think it is unusual. Shouldn't they have been going to class? Why was the principal in charge of delivering textbooks? How often do textbooks need to be delivered anyway?
The same that calls CPS on parents
Conservative ones. Conservatives should never be in a position of authority over others, especially children!
