  • No! When the bell rings you go away!

    Dear Boys in My Classes,
    Yes I have an Xbox. Yes I have a live account.
    No, you may not have my gamer tag.
    Yes, I know your minds are blown because I can quote South Park (it came out when I was in 6th grade!) and I know a ton of the references the other teachers won't get. The fact that I have an xbox and a gamer tag is just too much for you to deal with and I know each and every one of you would love to find me and shoot me in the head online. This is why you can't have my gamer tag.
    No, really. Stop asking.
    Sincerely,
    Ms. Blows Things Up After Grading Your Papers

    Dear Girls in My Classes,
    Yes I have a facebook account. I've had one for the past fiveish years or so--you know, when your college had to register so you could sign up for an account. I'm vintage like that.
    No, we can not be facebook friends. You can send me messages and I'll respond. You can send me requests and I'll be very touched as I hit the "ignore" button. But we will not be facebook friends.
    Sincerely,
    Ms. I am Your Damn Teacher Not Your Friend

      How about worship from afar. Can I do that?

        My student teaching days was when I went and made my MySpace and Facebook accounts all private. You may find me, but I shan't acknowledge.

        I don't think schools have really thought about that. Besides, what if the teacher is an old family friend? But I have a few of my professors as friends. But that's different.

          It's a delicate subject--basically teachers should follow the rule of common sense but...well...some of my old co-workers made my head hurt with their glaring lack of common sense. I'm young and teach at a high school--putting myself in a social situation with students can potentialy be dangerous, therefore I don't do it. I will talk to students outside of school, I'll send messages and I'll return all the hugs I'm given when paths are crossed, but until graduation I have a very strict "Me teacher, you student" mentality.
          It just sucks there are icky people who made this self defense mechanism necessary.

            Would it be wrong of me to wonder why you're blowing stuff up after grading papers?

              Well, since I don't drink anymore I need something to take the pain away.


              I've actually been tempted to frame a few tests/essays because they were so bad it was awesome.

                There have been a lot of stories in the news lately about teachers getting into trouble for posting inappropriate things on facebook which are then discovered by their students, and vice-versa.

                  If you lived closer, I'd take you up on that.

                        Yeah, but the wrong end of Canada. You'd need to be in Montana, maybe Washington.

                        And I'm not sure how it works between sites either...

                          Always the better option, of course, but ladies tend to get flustered if you start with the close worship before getting permission.

                              My friend teaches PE at a high school in Arizona - apparently their school board strictly forbids teaches from having facebook accounts!
