Sixteen New York City public school teachers have been singled out by education officials for pervy classroom behavior but they cant be fired, the Daily News has learned.
One instructor allegedly bent a kid over a chair and thrust into him from behind, saying Ill show you what is gay. Another couldnt stop calling girls in his gym class sexy. And yet another is accused of telling a student: I slept with your mother last night.
Fourteen of the shady instructors are still working with city kids and two of them have been yanked from the classroom after being accused again of inappropriate behavior.
While the city announced in March that officials are moving to can eight other staffers, officials said state law prevents them from booting these 16 instructors because independent arbitrators already decided their offenses were not cause for firing.
If I had my way, these teachers would no longer be in the classroom, said Walcott, who added that common-sense reforms would grant him the power to fire instructors who misbehave.
The teachers identified by Walcott range from a 30-year veteran who earns just over $100,000 to a mid-career instructor with eight years on the job who earns under $70,000.
The actions of one of them William Scharbach of Public School 299 in Queens, who allegedly rubbed male students and lifted them by their collars at best, give the appearance of impropriety, and at worst, suggest pedophilia, wrote arbitrator Paul Zonderman. The same could be said for many of the accused instructors, who were brought before independent arbitrators to decide their punishments.
The arbitrators state-appointed attorneys who are paid daily rates of $1,000 to $1,800 opted to let the instructors keep their jobs, and instead handed out a range of lesser punishments.
Teachers union president Michael Mulgrew said education officials could have taken additional steps to fire the teachers singled out by Walcott.
If the Department of Education believes that the hearing officer has made an egregious error, it can appeal the arbitration decision to the state courts, said Mulgrew.
But Education officials said that the legal standard for overturning an arbitrators decision is very difficult to meet and none of the cases would have met that standard.
The city has in the past removed teachers permanently from the classroom when they failed to win over a hearing officer.
Education officials have increased scrutiny of school staffers following an alarming spike in arrests of agency employees this year including at least seven for sex crimes....

Here’s another one. Well, sixteen actually, but the number will rise again, so what’s the point in counting?
Sodomy performed in Sodom is a bad thing?..
Seems to me its normal..
This stuff is absolutely NOT NEW....
It didn’t just begin to start happening..
Its been happening for decades..
AND still “the people” don’t see UNIONS are parasitic..
Yes... ALL OF THEM..
The public school is BY FAR, the largest, most expensive, most subversive, and most destructive entitlement program in the country.
The public school is better understood as the government school collective.
It is silly to imagine that you can fix the public schools, because the very concept itself is communist.
Any child that comes out of the government school collective with their moral compass and common sense intact does so in spite of the government school indoctrination, not because of it.
If you want to win the culture war, have lots of children (see my tagline) and homeschool them or form your own school cooperative with your church or synagogue and like-minded friends and relatives.
Nobody loves your children more than you do.
Nobody can teach your children like you can.
Your children would love nothing better than to be taught by you, if you start doing so before they are corrupted by the government school collective.
It is hypocritical for you to submit your children to an authority with whom you fundamentally disagree. And your children will know it.
If you have children, make whatever sacrifices you must to get them out of the public schools.
DO NOT FEED THE BEAST!
Especially not with your own children.

Separate school and state, before it’s too late.
That disgusting moron who “showed” that child “what is gay” by basically dry humping the victim seems to miss the fact that he has outed himself as a gay child molester. I do not think I could stop myself from hunting him down if that were to have happened to my child.
Can’t fire perverts, but if they endorse the TEA Party they are GONE IN SECONDS
Degenerate teachers ping
Actually, none of them need to be fired. Based on their antics....just call the cops and report them. Let the local prosecutor bring them in for a charge or two...you just need one conviction of “endangering a child” and then the school and the union can agree that this individual can’t stay in a public school. The laws already exist...just enforce them.

I thought teachers were poorly paid.
It's surprising that anything is considered "inappropriate behavior" in the cesspools of decadence (i.e. "Liberalism" in newspeak)
Another problem is that deviant behavior has become more acceptable--now that Western Civilization is in an advanced stage of decadence--and those inclined toward it are less inclined to stay in the closet.
However such behavior was going on when I was in school decades ago.
Pedophiles were there, but they were careful to stay deep in the closet.
There was a female teacher who, it was rumored, had a prolonged affair with a young teen-age male student, who was older than me. Once in a movie with my mother, we happened to sit behind this teacher and the boy. I knew who they were, but my mother didn't. They began to snuggle--in today's jargon "inappropriately". My mother was shocked--nudged me--and pointed for me to see--shocked that anyone would behave like that in a movie theatre. I whispered to her their names, told her that the woman was one of the school teachers and the boy a student. My mother was shocked into disbelief! She was completely dumbfounded. She did nothing other than gasp in disbelief. Years later I mentioned the incident to her occasionally--just to horrify her. She was still stunned. (My mother was naive to say the least.)
I know of at least one other boy who had a sexual affair with a female teacher, in junior high school.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
‘ERICK CALI, adult/continuing education teacher in Brooklyn. Accused of touching a girl’s hair, arms and shoulders.’
This one jumped out at me. Without more detail this could be innocuous. However, because of the rest of the cases, it has to be taken seriously. It is sad because as humans we need contact. We need pats on the back and hugs. Because of perverts though, thoughtful adults need to take a hands off approach to teens and children.
Sodom...................
I have one better. Have that teacher bring a Bible or say a prayer in the school and they are gone in a New York minute.
OK, I'm old at 53, but in my day, only females taught girls gym. Why are guys teaching gym class to girls? I'm lost here. Or is he transgendered or something?
We reap what we sow. Communists, molesters and faggots flock to our schools. No doubt about it.
This sort of thing has been routine in the NYC School
system for 30 years.
