It is this sort of thing that gives people like me, a teacher, a bad name.

On 4/20, we had a serious scare at our school, based on an unsubstantiated rumor that someone was going to do something like this. Of course, nothing happened at school that day, except school.

Regardless, it is this sort of thing that adds fuel to the fire and makes people wonder.

Even the unions are going to be hard pressed to protect these people.

Did the kids know that something could happen? How did you all keep them calm?

We had 3 days of call-in bomb threats back in January. Turned out it was an adult with no kids in the school, no connection that was apparant doing it from a grocery store phone at the pharmacy. The police figured it out from the surveillance cameras in the store. How wierd. Off course she was charged and I do believe she is in jail now serving time.

It has to be tough to be a teacher nowadays...I often ask my daughter if she could find a different job with more money, etc....but she is a born teacher, she loves the kids.
