Foul Talking in the Classrooms -by Brionna Dwyer At Heide Trask, our campus, outside area, hallways, and especially our classrooms have been flooded with profanity, or in other words, foul language. Some teachers, well, most teachers, don’t recommend inappropriate language in his or her classrooms. The youth of today, as well as some of our adults, use that type of language and should know it will probably get them in a lot of trouble. One of the teachers who doesn’t tolerate profanity is Mrs. Jessica Croson. She said, “I don’t use profanity and I know teenagers have their own talk, but as far as swearing goes in my classroom, I don't have to really deal with it” Mrs. Croson said, “Mostly I have all girls in my classes, and a few boys, so it’s not bad, but really it's kind of mute in my classroom." "As for me, I don’t swear,” she added. Mrs. Dekia Worthy is sweet and nice, but knows foul language is unacceptable in her classroom and doesn’t tolerate it's use. “My juniors and seniors don’t do it as much as my freshmen do,” she said. “It depends on where they come from because different people come from different backgrounds,” she also added, ”It varies on what the parents were taught, or what type of religion they go by. I try not use profanity.” Ms. Lynn Saye never swears in her classroom, and said, “I don’t tolerate swearing, but some students I have don’t believe that I don’t swear.” She also added, “I think it’s a matter of control. Because if they're in the work force, and say something they shouldn’t, they have to have to be able to have self-control of their speech,” she added. Many teachers prefer not to use foul language in school, and know that it can affect students as they get older and move into more professional settings. In the future, watch what you say and especially in Heide Trask classrooms! ]]> Tue, 15 Dec 2009 11:59:47 GMT
