The city Department of Education turned John Tomasi into a phantom student — and not only gave him fake report cards, but wrongly put his family under investigation for child abuse. The 14-year-old never enrolled in Cobble Hill School of American Studies in Brooklyn. He never attended a single class, in person or remotely. Yet this fall, the public school created two report cards for John, both including teacher comments. His physical-education teacher twice gave John the highest grade: “ME” for “exceeds standards.” His algebra teacher cited “progress toward … understanding the connection between proportional relationships, lines, and linear equations,” among other skills.

I wonder who he voted for.
Well, had he really existed he and his parents would have voted for bi.det. (Bi.det won it bi.night). So, no harm, the Truth (as promulgated by twitter censors) prevailed.

Oh, I can explain why they never responded to the mother. They don't really work at all. They just collect enormous tax payer pay checks and laugh all the way to the bank. And if you put up any resistance, the bureaucrats that they are will exact their vengeance.

The most profitable students of all are those that do not exist.

I hope they sue the school and the fraudsters for civil damages and win big.

Good grief. Apparently our country has become a cesspool of Democrat corruption. Never heard of the student? Then just put some generic notes on his "report card" to prove you are doing your "job". The school gets money per student and it makes me wonder how many they are creating ex nihilo.

Ironically I am currently watching Liam Neeson in Unknown. He doesn't know who he is.
Perhaps he graduated from a Brooklyn high school.

FTA: Under the DOE’s 2020-21 grading policy, eased due to the pandemic, students who don’t show up or don’t do work must be graded “NX.” Attendance is not required and failing grades are prohibited.
The NYC teachers' union is rotten to the core!

Sue and the tax payers pay. When a politician talks about how the unions are in complete control of not only the schools, but the whole bureaucracy, I'll believe he, she or it is serious. That word has not been uttered by anyone in the media or elected officials or wannabes.
JFK was elected to issue the EO allowing unions in the public sector and then he was offed so Johnson could complete our destruction.

Remember after Katrina the mayor of the Chocolate City let the entire police department go on vacation because they were all stressed out? And remember how a lot of those police officers didn't return from vacation? I've always wondered how many of those not returning might be ghost officers getting a paycheck that was actually cashed by city employees.

Government incompetence in action. School administration incompetence in action. Wasted taxpayer money in action. And where is this, NYC, a cesspool of incompetence. And now Government is in charge of distributing the Covid-19 vaccine, and we are wondering why the distribution is screwed up. Government inaction - taxpayers should be enraged.

Don't bother asking DeBlasio; Sgt. Schultz has oft repeated the answer DeBlasio would give.

Grading non-existent students is the norm for teachers. They don't want to do their jobs.

You think you've heard it all. I know someone who was mistakenly (maliciously) reported to authorities for abuse, and both his and his daughter's life was turned upside down and both were humiliated. Visits at all times from welfare workers, who sometimes admitted it was all an error but they couldn't stop 'the process'. In this Brooklyn case, deputy superintendent for Brooklyn North schools, Hoa Tu, said it was a mistake.
