Up North Progressive

Starting today, “Operation: This is a residential treatment facility not a teen swinger’s club” begins the education component. Two certified teachers out, a para pro gone in two weeks, and the Up North Progressive had an interview with another district last week. Pray for me.

Last week, the charter school district CEO kept hinting at “the crisis on this campus” without going into more detail. It was during the ride to lunch when a co-worker confided the kids had the run of the place and AWOLed at will to hook up with each other.

There’s a waiting list a mile long for kids to come here for treatment but they can’t let anyone in because of the situation as it stands. They need to be sent elsewhere, and the rest of the kids need to go too while they’re at it. Too many instances of older teen boys dragging 14-year-old girls away for days so they can have nonconsensual sex.

Pray for me.
