[aisle] Teacher complaint (and removal behind my back) about a book in my library

[BROOKE NELSON]

I’m not sure how to talk you down when the last two years have shown many
adults to have far less common sense than previous years. However, when you
are calm and talk to your principal, perhaps discuss your district/school
challenge policy, as it should cover this. And I don’t know how you feel
with confrontation, but if you are level headed, perhaps discuss this with
the teacher-thief, for no reason other than her taking something without
checking it out or asking. I have had to have these conversations with
teachers who take things when I’m gone.

I’m sorry this teacher cannot see the detriment of her censorship, and I’m
sorry you are in this position.
