Since when is critical thinking the enemy? Kudos to this teachers for having the kids think outside the box. You can continue to coddle your own child into incompetence but don't hinder everyone else's in the process.

This teacher should be commended not fired! She is teaching students to think and we need more of that in this country,

Since when does telling the truth about history--past and current--has to be curtailed? Are we going to see sanitized texts like totalitarian governments use? I thought we were better. stronger than that.

This is high school, only a few short years until these kids are in the real world and who is to say they don't read and or watch the news right now? Get over it. Don't shield the students from reality- help them learn to live in it.

Its just a stupid picture.. Just tell her not to do it again. Stop ruining her life over a pathetic picture. Obviously students didn't do it. Just drop it and let it go. Don't make her live get life in misery. She obviously loves too teach and your ruining that for her. So stop.

'Shielding' self-thinking teens and children from the real world does no favor for anyone. Naivety and ignorance do not change the way our world has evolved, and blind eyes are not to be encouraged if we expect positive change anywhere for anything.

I can't believe this is what our district has come too. Let her keep her job! This is absolutely insane.

I would suggest that Ms. Clausen provide the full lesson-plan here so that we can make sure this goes viral and that we get zillions of signatures! Without context, it's easy for people to jump to IGNORANT conclusions. I'm heading over to a few sites that I know will get this thing going... Enough of the stupidity!

Let teachers teach. Race is crucial to learn in school right now I think she was just doing her job.

This is a wonderful teacher who cares about kids and wants them to become great citizens. It's so disheartening and absolutely appalling that she'd be penalized for DOING HER JOB!! What a disgrace to this district. Going to make sure this goes viral! Bunch of idiots in charge!!!!

At this age kids are considering enlisting in the military, they should also be considered old enought to develop their own ideas about what is going on in the world.

I fully support this teacher and her decision to influence critical thinking.
The truth shall set you free!
Promote critical thinking in our schools!
