Four students raised their hands and began taking turns to beat up the uncooperative boy.
White allegedly pushed the boy after the students were done beating him up, which caused him to “hit his head on the desk.”
The substitute teacher called for help, and two staff members at the elementary school came to her aid.
She never told them that the boy had been beaten up and instead told the staffers he “needed behavioral assistance.”
The students told staffers at YMCA Tiger Academy that White was encouraging students in her classroom to beat the boy up.
White denied the allegation and claimed that she did not ask anyone if they could beat the boy up.
But one of the students who volunteered for the fight told the police that the “teacher told him to do it” or else he would not have attacked his fellow student.
The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office said that the boy beaten up by his classmates had cuts and bruises on his face.
White was arrested and charged with child abuse and four counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor for ordering the beat down of the student.
YMCA Tiger Academy and the Duval County Public Schools claimed that they had conducted a thorough background check on White before she was hired as a substitute teacher.
The elementary school did damage control in a statement announcing that White had been fired after the incident.
“We immediately reported the incident to the Department of Children and Families, who are conducting an ongoing investigation in collaboration with the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office. All further inquiries about the incident should be directed to them,” the school added.
Geanene White could not keep her cool in the classroom, and it is going to cost her big time.
This one weird question can ruin your day!
The big reason “not to homeschool” is because if you homeschool your child they will miss out on the “socialization” you get in the government schools. This right here is an example of the “socialization”.
She was using GhettoLogic ® , it’s all she knows.

Thou shalt not disrespect the Ghettopotamus.
Evidently the background check wasn’t thorough enough to filter out a psycho. I have always gotten the impression that the bar was set pretty low for people who want to be subs, but come on.
Maybe in prison she will hear “who can Molly whop the fish” when she first arrives
She was not arrested for asking a question, as the headline states, but for allowing the beating to happen and not doing anything about it.
It wasn’t speech, it was her actions. Stupid headline. When I was in Catholic grammar school, there was a kid a year older than me in eighth grade, who was being raised by his grandmother with a different last name. The grandmother was elderly and worked in the school cafeteria. We kids didn’t like her because she had a nasty disposition. The grandson was, surprisingly, a problem child.
One day he pissed in the wastebasket in front of the whole class in the presence of the teacher who was a nun. He had a reputation as a tough guy, but so did some of the other boys in that class. One of them told me that they were praying for him to strike the nun, because despite how much they hated school, that would have been a bridge too far. They were dying to kick his ass.
I do not know what happened to him.
Good gravy what a stupid woman. I’m a teacher in Florida, and thankfully I work in a more right-leaning county, and I love the school where I work. We’ve had some doozy subs, though — one ghetopotamus actually got so angry in a class they wanted to throw hands with a middle schooler.
Yes, the kids can be obnoxious, but the best way I’ve learned to deal with the behavior is to ignore them. They want the reaction. When they don’t get it — you have the power, and eventually, they fall in line.
But to actually let them get under your skin enough to fight them? Yeesh.
In Florida, she will probably get some slammer time as she should.
Maybe she was trying to teach the kids about Ancient Rome and gladiator battles.

who bullied, forced, and held against their will some number of middle school girls and demanded they disrobe in front of a boy for an entire week of school are not wrong.
Gotta keep the disciplinary practices in the right columns ...
Should cost her jail time.
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.

Just fired? Not in a cell?
