Kids at Public School 189 on Steenwick Ave. told officials that on June 12, 2013, she asked them for “counsel” on her love life, according to a report by the Special Commissioner of Investigation .

“Fiering told the students that she was dating two men who were in their thirties and she needed advice on which one to choose,” according to documents obtained by the Daily News through a Freedom of Information Request.

1. Sounds like bullshit. This agency.... SCI... frequently hypes these lurid, "sexy" stories....

... to hide the fact that it looks the other way when real criminality is involved.

By that I mean fraud, theft, conflict of interest, etc.

The idiot tabloid media is more than happy to oblige.

2. Foolish woman.

She should have first become a teacher in the private sector. Then her work would be hailed as a major breakthrough in teaching.

3. They obsess over this sort of horseshit and then wonder why our schools suck. nt
