What do you mean, someone stole someone's (your daughter's?) essay and they all turned in the same one??

My daughter is the teacher.

Parsing is so important!! I read that as essays that were identical to your daughter’s essay!

You don't have to be in a well-heeled district to find that attitude amongst parents. When it's coupled with spineless administrators who cave to such parents, teachers can't succeed. That's why one of my daughters left the teaching profession.
