The teacher from Pa. Central Bucks East High School who blogged complaints about her students will return to school this fall, she had been suspended with pay after students found her blog this February. The superintendent said at the time that Munroe's blog posts about her students and co-workers were "very egregious" and "certainly could result in termination." The school district's human resources director confirmed Wednesday that Munroe would return, but declined to comment further, saying the district will hold a press briefing next week and will have no further comment until that time.
Her blog was called "Where are we going, and why are we in this handbasket?" The blog had nine followers but now has 633. She did not name students in any of the posts which students found on Feb. 8 and circulated it via social media.
Students, parents and community members already have had mixed reactions about the news of Munroe's return. It is unclear why the district is allowing Munroe to return. Is the school district worried it could cause this big law suit and they could lose? However this has become an important national First Amendment, employment and education case issue.
