I just heard a rumor from a teacher down in Tucson. She
told me that the school district wants to start a process
by which the teacher visits the home of her each of her
students to get to know the parents better. I have very
uncomfortable feelings about this. Number one is "Big
Brother" intrusion into the very private homes of my
parents--Number two is that I would have to report
unsuitable surroundings in the home to a very understaffed
Child Protective Agency -- Number three is the tons of
extra paperwork and time that this process would eat up --
Number 4 is the fact that I would be venturing into some
very unsavory neighborhoods where I am an unwelcome
presence. Please tell me that this rumor is only rumor. I
thought that Arizona could not come up with any more wacky
solutions to the poor educational standing but this so
called solution might take the cake.
