Fortunately, Our Teachers Continue to Make Good Progress "Educating" the Children - 135 Teachers and Teachers Aides Charged with Sex Crimes So Far This Year The majority charged were men which could be expected. Forty one states between Jan 1 and May 13 which is an average of about 1 per day. https://fxn.ws/3yRYbxm Erika Sanxi, Director of Outreach for Parents Defending Education, said the epidemic of sex crimes in the school system needs to be thoroughly investigated. Sanxi said in a statement: “Educator sexual abuse is a major problem that largely gets ignored because it’s so uncomfortable to talk about,” “The last federally commissioned study on the issue was in 2004, pre-smart phone and those who study the issue closely say that the problem has been exacerbated by the ease of communication that a smart phone provides,” Could actually be worse though since these only represent the cases receiving publicity. Unreported cases or those kept quiet are not included. #publicschools #publiceducation #childabuse #sexualabuse
