COLUMBIA BASIN SECONDARY SCHOOL

Teacher: Lanny Ledeboer

Student degrading and total disregard of kind conduct and common decency

Teacher Complaint About: Columbia Basin Secondary School - Lanny Ledeboer

Teacher Complaint: Lanny Ledeboer - Columbia Basin Secondary School

Constantly Mr. Ledeboer has done things day by day that I see all the time that aren’t good for any form of teaching conduct, he is not a kind person all around. Frequently he brings up subjects of religion, and how he can't allow himself to believe in god or any form of religion, further imposing his beliefs on his students by saying everyday that 'he is the world’s smartest man', almost challenging everybody because of his own deep insecurity. Whenever someone is a Christian and he has a subject where he can challenge their beliefs in front of everybody he does so no matter what, even if the student is in a situation where it shows anxiety or displeasure, he forces them to answer giving them no other option. Often he'd have debates with religious kids that aren't even sixteen years old yet and he implies to them that there really is no god no matter what they say, even taking it as far as to say 'If there is a god may he strike me with lightning and kill me now'. Obviously these things aren't decent for anybody’s religious views at school and can even make some people feel indecent to answer his questions due to the common youth’s fear of being put under too much pressure. But that isn't the only thing, I could go on as well. Certain students who aren't as keen as others, he makes a point of making a nuisance of, even after they have gotten the picture and succeeded a good deal due to fear of Mr. Ledeboer harassing them, they still get centered out in class all the time because Mr. Ledeboer turns it into a ritual type feature where he will harass them all year which can even imply some mental degrading features over time due to his tactics, which is obviously not good for the students and their time of growing to be around such situations, these things might imply permanent affects over certain students. Whenever someone has the idea that they did something good on an assignment and Mr. Ledeboer sees it, even if it is in front of the class, he will degrade the student to a very critical level that is demeaning almost like the student has mental retardation, even taking it to the level of sometimes drawing it out on the board while harassing the student and telling them what they did wrong, obviously something else that isn't good and can be unsettling for students, not to mention ones with vulnerability on a deeper lever than others. I mean I don't want to drown your ear out with a million complaints about how he teaches, but I could go on with even more information. He has even token it as far as to challenge peoples sexuality before the class! He degrades people’s cultures in front of them and the entire class and even joins in with students while they racially harass a certain culture, further inviting them to bring racism into the world even more. He has gone as far as to tell girls to pull up their pants because girls don't sag, which is almost like sexual harassment since he is implying these things in front of the entire class to where people can look as she has to stand up and pull her pants up while everybody’s watching because Mr. Ledeboer wants them too and will even take it as after as to stop class until they do. Honestly this guy has a long list of things that I could point out that are bad for students. I don't know how well he is within his right, I know he is in a teachers union and has years as a teacher but with things like these going on I don't think any of that really matters, he needs to have his teaching tactics assessed to some level or some matter of action needs to be taken for the students to assert these situations from ever happening again. It clearly isn’t good school productivity and can harm a student’s environment so something should be done about these situations. Please take full effort to look into this.

Wow, is all I have to say to this, if the person who wrote this complaint was brave enough to have an opinion of Ledeboer online then maybe they should be brave enough to debate their beliefs to him as well. He does not degrade different races or religion rather states his opinion about them.If you disagree say something. Mr Ledeboer is the best teacher at CBSS and in my four years there I learned a lot from him. Maybe if you would have spoke to him personally about this compliant you have things would have changed but I am guessing you were to frightened to. So, you wrote here instead.Good job accomplishing absolutely nothing!

Lanny is one of the best educators I have met. I was a high school drop out before coming to the Job Corp in 1991. I completed my training at Job Corp, Joined the Army. After getting out of the Army I became a Police Officer and now I am doing very well. If I had not had Lanny as a teacher who would challenge me to suceed, who knows where I would be. Lanny was always open for class debates....I remember Clinton was ready to be elected and how my friend Russ would get into it with him and his teaching aid Greg the hippy lol. Anyways he will always have my respect as a teacher and friend.
