From the chair to the court. For Marisa Francescangeli , 58, the teacher originally from Nuoro who teaches music, history and geography at the elementary schools of San Vero Milis, suspended last March for twenty days by the provincial school office following various accusations made by three mothers of the third B , with also the reduction of half of her salary, the trial before the judge will begin in three days following the appeal she presented to ask for the annulment of the provision . The first hearing is set for Wednesday 14 June at 9.30. Remotely though. The lawyers Domenico Naso and Elisabetta Mameli will connect with the judge from the Cagliari office of the Uil union, which has always been on the front line to defend the teacher. Maria Francescangeli will also be connected: "I never thought I'd have to defend myself before a judge - comments the teacher - But what has been done against me is exaggerated, it's too much".
The suspension came after the protest of three mothers from San Vero Milis who did not like the recitation of some prayers in class . But not only. In the report that the school director Alessandro Cortese sent to the USP, we read that three mothers during an interview that took place at school would have told that the teacher, in addition to having some prayers recited in class and making a small rosary, would have shown the image of lungs ruined by smoking by claiming that smoking parents don't love their children . According to three parents, the teacher put a particular substance on the children's foreheads. Facts that according to some mothers would have caused considerable inconvenience to the young students.
In the appeal, however, it is underlined that there would be no type of meeting on the part of teachers on the allegations made. Now, however, it will be the judge who will express his opinion on the correctness of the provision imposed on the teacher.
