Support for Melanie Lemon

I cannot believe a teacher would be treated so poorly over this situation. My kids knew if they got in trouble in school they would get in trouble again at home. The problem in schools today is teachers have all day with many kids whom are not disciplined at home thus causing disruptions for the entire class. As a parent volunteering in classrooms there were a few kids over the years disrupting my child classroom which is frustrating for children who can behave and want to learn. With all of the positive comments on this board Ms. Lemon clearly has a wonderful reputation in the community. I appreciate Ms. Bowen (retired WGES teacher I know well and trust her opinion) coming forth to tell her observation of this event. This is an extremely upsetting situation.

Keep your head up! I'm sure you are an amazing teacher!

This is not the first time the Williamson County Board has behaved in this way. That's why it's so important to sign this petiton.

Ned to stop the bullying by afministrators

Be strong. You are not alone.

I am Kate Spain's grandmother. Kate absolutely adores you. Sorry you are going through this mess. Thank you for wonderful year Kate had in second grade.

this is ridiculous. One child claims an incident happens and the teacher is treated this way? When do the parents tell their child they should have been behaving and listening and then maybe the teacher wouldn't have had to tell them to stop it and put their hands on them. Exactly what's wrong with our society. And the administration should be backing their educator.

One of the most thoughtful individuals I have ever met. I would be proud to have her teach my son.

Please contact me, Melanie. My number is 615-485-6873. I would like to write a story about this. I am a reporter for the Williamson Source.

I am Melanie's neighbor and live right next to her! I can't imagine another person I would rather be with my children than Melanie lemon.

Ms. Lemon made a huge impact on our son. She pushed him and taught him lessons that helped form his educational foundation.

Wonderful person, sweet, loves kids. Sounds like a horrible decision on the part of school.

We were fortunate to be neighbors for 10 years. One of the kindest people we have met.

Love you Melanie!!! You are an amazing teacher and our family loves you so much!!!

I'm not sure what exactly is going on, but Mrs lemon was an amazing teacher. She made 6th grade a lot of fun.

Melanie is probably one of the kindness, most giving, most humble women I know. She is an angel from Heaven, no doubt!

I love Mrs. Lemon, she helped me so much when I was in 2nd grade! #savemrs.lemon

Two of my very best friends had this wonderful woman as a teacher and they've told me every day how much they love and miss her. I hope that she can continue to positively impact more children's lives for years to come.

One of my close friends had her and loved her sooooo much and she is such an amazing person and cares absolutely everyone so much!

I hope you get better soon!
