A chemistry teacher at University Preparatory High School in Visalia, California was arrested after she forcibly cut a student's hair while singing the "Star-Spangled Banner." One of the students in Margaret Gieszinger's chemistry class recorded the disturbing incident, which showed the teacher ordering a male student to "take a seat" in front of the class and cutting off a piece of his hair and then tossing it over her shoulder. The video then cuts to the teacher grabbing a female student in an attempt to cut her hair, causing the girl and the other students in the class to run out of the room.
"We think she's going to try to be funny and be like, 'Oh did you really think I was going to cut his hair?' But she did cut a hair off, and she started singing the 'Star-Spangled Banner" and she was singing it really loudly as she ceremoniously tossed a chunk of hair behind her," one of the students told ABC30.
Another student said that Gieszinger, who had her teaching credentials suspended twice, in 2006 and 2017, had another freakout earlier in the week when she snapped at her students when she could not find a copy of a test.
Gieszinger was arrested and jailed on suspicion of felony child endangerment, and a judge set her bond at $100,000.
The Tulare County Office of Education has released a statement saying that they "promptly removed Ms. Gieszinger from her classroom" and that the 52-year-old teacher has been replaced by a "highly-qualified substitute teacher."
We take very seriously the safety of the students in classrooms and on the COS campus. We move decisively when questions of inappropriate and unprofessional conduct are brought to the attention of UPHS administration. In this instance, we promptly removed Ms. Gieszinger from her classroom and worked closely with the COS Police Department. We are reviewing all available information and will take the most severe employment action appropriate. Ms. Gieszinger will not return to her UPHS classroom.
Um...guilty...
Borderline personality disorder?
Some serious psychological disturbance going on there.
A $100K bond for cutting hair. WTF? Rapist get less.
Oh say can you see my eyes if you can?.....down to here,down to there.....Cowsills.

She had her teaching credentials suspended twice before so they knew she had a screw loose.
It is refreshing to know that there are still students today that stand for our National Anthem.
Why should I care if I have to cut my hair?
Eyes look lost, and desperate.
“There’s a home for the fleas in my hair.
A home for the fleas;
A hive for the buzzing bees!”
Did somebody get her Zoloft mixed up with her Ecstasy again?
Oops!
“...As long as I can grow my HAIR!!”
I see there are lots of older folks on FR!!!
Another lefty loon loses her $h!+. Moral of the story? HOMESCHOOL!
She’ll land at some other public school dumping ground.
But a snowflake is far more damaged by a strand of missing hair than by being violently raped - so this actually makes perfect sense....
Cut My Hair
[Verse 1]
Why should I care
If I have to cut my hair?
I got to move with the fashion
Or be outcast
I know I should fight
But my old man he’s really alright
And I’m still living at home
Even though it won’t last
[Chorus]
Zoot suit, white jacket with side vents
Five inches long
I’m out on the street again
And I’m leaping along
Dressed right for a beach fight
But I just can’t explain
Why that uncertain feeling
Is still here in my brain
[Verse 2]
The kids at school
Have parents that seem so cool
And though I don’t want to hurt them
Mine want me their way
I clean my room and my shoes
But my mother found a box of blues
And there doesn’t seem much hope
They’ll
Let me stay
It wasn’t for lack of bread...
