Absolutely my dude! My school pretended the cams didn’t work when my calculator was stolen… they worked fantastically the next week.
That is some BS! Honestly, I probably would have dealt with that kid schoolyard-style (though, I'm not proud of that as an adult). My school never pretended the cameras were out of service. They just got rid of them after a teacher was accused of inappropriate behavior with a senior. Claimed they never worked. He "left for another state" later that week. I'm sure it was unrelated...
Hahaha he was a lil dude and he came from a rough family. Plus I was like 115-120lbs at the time, I ain’t no fightgurl. I knew my folks would get me a better one (it wasn’t even a plus model…) so I was easy on him.
Still stopped talking to him.
Also at your last coupe sentence… oh dear me. That’s… not good.
Sounds like he was trying to get what he needed to learn the maths, even if screwed over his friends. Hopefully he learned from it, improved himself, and didn't do something like that again. After all, we all did stupid things growing up. You seemed to have handled it really well. Good on you!
Yeah, it was really bad. And I wish I could say it was the first of its kind at that school. Or the last. But I wasn't either. That principal was a joke who had his boys club going strong. Last I heard, he was black-listed from all educational institutions, public and private. I hope that was a permanent ban. I'm not sure about the others who committed these acts, though.
