FULL TITLE: Three school teachers set to be fired after private chat room emails reveal shocking discussion about their 'moron' special needs students
Three elementary teachers in a New Jersey school district have been caught having a shocking conversation about some of their special needs students, referring to them as 'morons' and 'short bus kids' - and are now set to be fired as a result.
The teachers - Tyler Van Pelt, Maria Weber and Maryellen Lechelt - allegedly engaged in an inappropriate online discussion on October 23 while training in a new technology to be implemented in their school district of Edison, however were unaware that the chat room could be accessed by others in the program.
Another teacher in the room suspected the trio were making fun of her after hearing them laughing and soon stumbled upon a transcript of their vulgar chat, which she then sent to her principal.
The three were suspended with pay - as per procedure - and are accused of unbecoming conduct, insubordination for misuse of school technology, failure to pay attention to the training and violating the district's sexual harassment and affirmative action policies, among other charges, NBC New York reported.

ARTH PING....
“i like the group name ‘’morons’’,’ Lechelt allegedly responded.
‘they take the tart cart home.’
Van Pelt then wrote back: ‘short bus kids.’
Van Pelt also described a group of his students as ‘I hate you don’t waste my time’.
Lechelt, following suit, described some of her own charges as ‘jesus christ, why the f-— did they place you with me?’.
Why are they teachers?
Never post anything in an email that you wouldn’t want on the front page of the NYT. ;-)
This was a chat room only others could see it and they did not know.
They are not, now!!
...or seen by a jury.
FR comments, on the other hand...
‘I hate you don’t waste my time’.
‘why the f-— did they place you with me?’.
Sounds like my teen age daughters talking about their teachers!
Disability ping

They have lawyers. I expect this not to end well for the school.
I seriously can’t believe the comments made about those kids. These are teachers today? No wonder the kids are messed up.
I’m an old lady and know enough to NEVER put anything on-line that I wouldn’t want the world to see.
What the hell is the matter with people?
.
“Why are they teachers?”
Because if they were smart enough to know that the might have been monitored they would be administrators.
Oh I just know the teachers union is not done with this.
“What the hell is the matter with people?”
I’ll say it. Some teachers, some mind you are the most stupid people on the planet earth.
I have had very good teachers in my day. So not to bash them. There are some teachers who should have NEVER have been teachers. Anymore that is being the case. More and more of them.
Especially if you're going to insult members of the extra-special protected groups in our society. Calling the window-lickers "morons" is a sure way to get yourself into trouble. It's so insensitive.

Who’s the moron?
100% dues before children
but a school teaching 13 year olds that they are ready for sex is not shocking or controversial
LOL!
very naughty, but
LOL!
This is what happens when you mainstream special need children instead of having dedicated special education classes.
