At Washington High, a teacher's beating is the final straw
2015-12-10
[PHILLY] A brutal assault on a teacher at George Washington High School led to the removal Tuesday of the troubled school's principal, Philadelphia School District officials confirmed.

Hoping to quiet a culture of violent incidents, district officials reassigned Gene Jones a day after the attack, which occurred during third period Monday morning, midway through a ninth-grade biology lesson.

The classroom door - usually locked against intruders - was open, allowing a handful of students to walk paperwork across the hallway, according to someone with firsthand knowledge of the incident.

#12  Yo, citizens, fill up the bleachers
As schoolteachers battle their creatures!
See fierce gladiators
Meet meek "educators,"
Saint Paul's Federation of Preachers.

#9  Public school administrators have lost control of the schools. That is why many parents are putting their kids in private schools.

#7  Aggravated assault and they only face expulsion? How about some serious jail time?

#6  Back in ancient times, about 1981, some parents got a local DA to pay attention to violence in their school's classrooms. He formed a grand jury which turned in indictments on the principle and his two assistance for failures to report felony assault crimes committed in the school. Seems the school administration was trying to suppress the inconvenient information. They plead out and surrendered their teaching certifications. Different times.

#3  "the teacher wrestled the student to the ground" - even though it was the student punched him, I am certain the teacher's use of force will be grounds for disciplinary action and possibly lawsuit against him.
