A student in Fort Pierce, Florida has been disciplined for recording her teacher threatening to beat up her classmates.
11-Year-Old Brianna Cooper began to record her teacher at Sam Gaines Academy after the educator started to berate her pupils. It soon escalated, with the teacher threatening outright to beat up the pre-teens.
“Don’t let size fool you,” the teacher said on the recording. “I will drop you… You don’t know me, that’s all I’m saying. So, don’t give me no look.”
She continued, “You’re the biggest kid in 5th grade and you’re acting like the smallest one…. I wonder what your mom looks like.”
Ms. Cooper said that her teacher had been mean to students before and she wanted to show people who didn’t believe her.
The student was then suspended for five days by the school while the teacher was investigated.

The government only allows approved optics, thank you.
Your tax dollars at work.
Sounds like the school principal needs to spend a night or two in the jug to re-consider their suspension of the student.
At least she used proper grammar.
Sounds like you should read the article.
Pretty good education.
I read the article, Tonto.
What did I miss?
Read the rest of the article. The suspension was lifted and the teacher was removed.
And the principal, the executive officer of the school, made the decision to suspend the student without having all of the facts—Rank incompetence which suggests that the principal poses a danger to both staff and students.
..they publish and print the little girls name, but the teacher escapes
They "felt"? Here we go with the ole "feelings" again. Didn't they even check into what the law is? Geez!
How long will it take before it leaks out that the teacher was moved to another position teaching kids? Teacher unions are part a parcel to organized crime and act that way on a daily basis.
Must be the fact I would be charged with assault.
The last thing these jerks should have done was to suspend the student.
“How long will it take before it leaks out that the teacher was moved to another position teaching kids? Teacher unions are part a parcel to organized crime and act that way on a daily basis.”
I don’t think the school can control that, but they were correct in removing her. Depending on the state, the teacher could still be banned from teaching elsewhere based on the severity of the offense, despite the union.
“don’t give me no look.”
teach no be speak English dat good.
“So, don’t give me no look.”
This is why you want to home school your children.
