Wow. One of my wood shop teachers shot himself in the classroom. No one was in their at the time.

Disgusting, selfish prick. Like the so-called tranny kid that ran in front of a truck — scarring that driver for life instead of just shooting himself in a field somewhere.

One of my favorite lines from Blazing Saddles:

[Bart returns unexpectedly after being sentenced to death]
Charlie: They said you was hung.
Bart: And they was right.

What a horrible thing to do to the children.

It is a tragic shame that teachers are in a trade that has so much cultural, social, union, administrator and public pressure put on what in the previous century was a straightforward job.

Who would have thought a century ago that post office workers would be stereotyped as ready-to-snap? We are creating stressful work environments with big government.

One would expect a teacher to hang around in the classroom.

This school is upper middle class, mostly white, in a very nice, upscale, and largely Conservative and Christian community in Orange County, California. Whatever the reasons for this tragedy, it is unlikely that social issues in the community had anything to do with it.

I’ve know a lot of teachers. They all quit because the parents harassed them.

Sounds suspicious. Hanging is a very unusual method for a woman to chose.

As a teacher, I just cannot imagine doing that to students...

Killing myself is hard enough to imagine - but this honestly makes me wonder if the teacher was trying to send some sort of message to the students. Not that there’s any excuse for this but it smacks of being some sort of sick revenge. And I hope somebody tries to find out why.

I know the neighborhood and it is as you say. Assuming suicide she really dumped on those kids. I have little sympathy for such a person.

Is it certain it was suicide?

High school. Was she about to be found out to be having a relationship with a student? Seems designed to cause maximum damage to students or school. I’m sure she has a home where she could have done it.

Her father had recently committed suicide also. That may have played a role in it. She may have been going thru some deep depression.
