Teacher Ties Up Loud Students At Elementary School

HICKORY, North Carolina - When four kids became too loud in their third-grade classroom at Southwest Elementary, their substitute teacher employed a rather asinine form of punishment. She made the kids stand up in class then tied them together with a jump rope. Using the rope as a leash, she led the crying kids down a ramp into a playground where she left them for half an hour. She told them she wanted them to know what jail felt like. Obviously, parents are pissed. The Hickory City School District said the substitute, who has been in the school system since 2004, acted in an inappropriate manner and no longer works in the schools there. I do not agree with what the teacher did, but man that punishment is WEAK when compared to the shit they would do to you in the ’70s. I’d take a trip to the playground over the Board of Education any day of the week. [Read more...]
