4 years ago my son was a student at whitney middle school, and had told me that Mr.Gisler had asked him to go to his home to make money in exchange of cutting the grass i personally went to the school and adviced them of the situation and that it was not the first time, i was very upset that the school did not do anything about it.I confronted Mr. Gisler and I told him that if he ever offer anything to my son again i was going to call the police.

I said the same thing yesterday. My son was also his student and he tried to pursue my son. I shut him down quickly. I tried talking to people but nobody would listen. I warned my son to never, never leave his self in a position to be alone with this man and took my sons father to the school to let him know he had a father involved in his life. I think he was purposefully trying to pursue what he thought was a kid from a single parent home. I was a single mom but my son has a Dad very involved in his life. All the teachers at Whitney were awful, the principal was the worst. They lie and cover for each other no matter what the problem is. I have no doubt this boy is not his only victim and if you and I saw it I am sure many more did too but nobody at the school would do anything about it. They don't care about your kids only protecting their so called reputation. I know the principal will lie or do whatever to deny being warned or questions by parents because I caught him in more then one lie myself. I even secrectly tape recorded a meeting with him because of his lies and what he would say when no one else was around. Then later lie about it in front of others. One of the things he said was kids with disabilities needed to "just get over it" because nobody cares. Can you believe that! He or none of the other teachers there care about your kids. My awful experience with the teachers at Whitney was why I let my son go live with his dad, even though it broke my heart, just to get him out of TPS. I got news for everybody, Mr. Gisler isn't the only one there!!!!!!!! Be warned. There are also some teachers there who will verbaly abuse your kids too and possible, though not sexually, physically abuse your kids. It is an awful school but unfortunately I think that runs rampant in TPS all over. They just lie and go on though and you can't fight them. I tried and gave up. My son is in a great school, doing excellent and I am glad everyday I got him out.

TPS school board is open for all parents....if the parents of Whitney feel this strongly about the administration...it is up to "you" to fight it. I realize this is a moot point now. However, for future reference. Glad your son is doing better.

Just wanted to say one more thing, always follow your instincts. My story and Liz's is proof that if it feels wrong act on it. Never be afraid to hurt someone's feelings or offend someone. When it comes to your kids safety never, never trust anyone if it doesn't feel right no matter who they are. Also after all the sexual abuse cases involving big brothers and sisters, no telling how many we don't hear or know about, I cannot believe they are still allowed to operate at all. I don't care how much good someone thinks they do. It's like having a dating game for pedophiles and just one victim is too many. I think it's time to shut them down. Bash me if you want but in this day and age I would never trust an operation like that with my kid and I can't believe anybody else does. This man tried to win me over by letting me know he was a big brother and that alone made me even more scared of him.
