Gwinnett Teacher To Get Hearing

June 28th, 2005 by Quan Tranh

Physics teacher Larry Neace will get a hearing on July 26. He was terminated for lowering the grade of a student who was sleeping in class. The hearing is scheduled for 11 a.m. in the executive board room at the state Board of Education, 2053 Twin Towers East in Atlanta. The hearing is open to the public.

Board policy forbids teachers from lowering grades as punishment. He did violate policy, but lets be realistic here. If this were an employee evaluation I think I could knock a few points off for sleeping on the job in some category of the performance review.
