In response to your comment, the following week, my daughter
returned to the classroom. Unknown to the teacher, the
principal and counselor sat outside the classroom with my
husband and I. Throughout the course of the morning, the
teacher made several verbal threats to my daughter that were
clearly heard in the hallway. My daughter was removed from
the classroom and placed in another class. The teacher was
suspended for one week prior to a hearing before the school
board. At that meeting, I discovered that this was not the
first time that she had treated a student this way and had
actually had charges filed against her by another parent for
grabbing their student by the jaw to force them to look up at
her. She left marks that were evidenced by police
photographs. To date, the teacher has been fired, is facing
criminal charges and will never teach in my city again. To
tell me that I am in denial when such overwhelming evidence
has been proven against this teacher shows that you are the
one in denial. I too, would like to believe that such things
do not take place when we trustingly place our children on the
bus in the mornings. I took it for granted that she would be
safe.
