There are some things I can understand in life, and there are some things I just can't. One thing I can't though is having to get FBI clearances just to shadow a teacher at any given school. This is just to shadow or observe the teacher not to be a student teacher in the classroom. So why would a student need FBI clearances of all things, just to observe a teacher for an hour? I can understand this if it was only for student teaching.Another thing is that not all school districts require a college student to get FBI clearances to observe in one of their schools. And that is what is agitating me. If School A requires clearances to observe and School B (which is only 10 miles away and School A's rival) doesn't require clearances, which school would you choose to go to?
The last thing bothering me is the time it takes to get the clearances. The clearances come in a set of three, and all three are needed, you can't have two without the last one. And the one clearance takes almost 4 weeks to process. What kind of crap is this? That means if your clearances aren't in by the time you need to shadow, excuse my language, but you are shit out of luck.
So if you can guess correctly, yes I am a college student who needs FBI clearances, which if you can guess again, haven't come in for me.
