Am I referring to a policy scuffle over No Child Left Behind? Alas, no, that would be so boring and predictable. I refer to an actual food fight at George Bush High School in Fort Bend, Texas--an incident that resulted in the arrest of an assistant principal, Andre Credit, who was then defended by the teachers union. According to the Houston Chronicle:
"We have information that the investigation was not thoroughly done in a way that guarantees a full and complete closure to the situation," said Karrie Washenfelder, president of the Fort Bend Employee Federation, Local 6198.
Washenfelder made the comments at an afternoon news conference Thursday attended by several teachers from George Bush High School, north of Richmond.
None of the people who spoke at the news conference were in the cafeteria when the incident happened.
Is it just me, or is this story hilarious on several levels? Enjoy your Friday.
