Scottsdale Teacher Accused of Sex Crimes is Terminated

Just as the twisted tale of Tom Porras becomes public, the Scottsdale school district is moving to fire the long-time teacher from his post at Saguaro High School. Porras is alleged to have inappropriately touched a minor while she was visiting the teacher's home. The story continues to unfold, and today it was learned that many students may have visited Porras' house over the years. Security is a huge issue in our schools and Scottsdale's schools are showing some major holes in their security and safety controls for the students. High test scores are wonderful, but only in an environment that is safe and secure for our students.
