[LM_NET] Target: (Elem) Teachers restricting books

[Janet McCoy <mccoymedia@YAHOO.COM>]

I am so tired of teachers coming into the library and telling students that they 
cannot check out certain books because they are not on their reading level 
according to one test that was given.  Am I wrong or is this censorship?  My 
principal is strongly for AR and is big on students reading only books in their 
ZPD.  What can I say to her to convince her that students need to be free in the 
library to make their own choices of what to read and that we are infringing on 
their rights?
