Im not saying its right, but after cycling to work past a school I can understand...

posed as a substitute (who has to pose? they'll take anyone with a pulse. you pay to get fingerprinted and then pay to get an "emergency" credential. the only qualification you need to sub is money)? mayhem? really? she intentionally maimed and disfigured those children?

In USA or UK?

And here I thought I hated children

However, after that teacher left she allegedly proceeded to organise students by race and gender, insult them using racial slurs and derogatory statements, and use explicit language — as well as playing loud rap music and bragging about being OK with going to jail.

A 16-year-old boy in the class told authorities that she also called one student ‘fat boy’ and told two white pupils that ‘they were the type to start school shootings’, Independent reports.

I know a lot of people are going to sound off about how they had it worse when they were a kid, but mental and verbal abuse is still abuse. It was never okay, not back then, and not now. This lady doesn't even have the excuse of being old and worn out like many of the professionals in that field. She's 23, doesn't actually work in that field, just decided to show up and being abusive.

Jones is scheduled for a preliminary court hearing on October 20 and, according to the Independent, could face a maximum 21 years in prison if she is convicted.

If only she was a child molester, she'd be out already.

This sentence should not be possible under these circumstances, unreal

One time in fourth grade, we had a new substitute that had a system for how mad she was. Lik, y'know. She came in as a teddy bear, she said. The more mad she got, she went up in bears. So over the course of the day, she gradually went up her scale because we were rowdy, I guess, however this went down, this was a million years ago, but she became a koala then brown then black. This spurred a discussion about how black bears are usually smaller and more docile, leading to a debate, which was a mistake, questioning this woman's bear knowledge. Thus, she reached her grizzly state and slammed a textbook on the overhead projector, breaking it. We never had that substitute teacher again, but in fifth grade we got this regular sub that had alligators.

She really larped Roblox for the love of the game

Some do it for the money, some do it for the love of the game.

I don't think that's significantly different from every fucking sub my kid has had in elementary school.

Mr. Blah said that if we didn't stay absolutely quiet all day that instead of going to recess, he was going ot make us all do pushups.

They're fucking first graders. go fuck yourself mr blah because empty threats aren't going to mean shit to these kids.

23? She's a kid herself ffs!

Substitute teacher story: at my high school, a sub teacher called Mrs. West (who every student agreed was the Wicked Bitch of the West, absolute cunt of an old woman) got fired for telling a black student, "my grandparents owned your great grandparents." I don't remember if that kid was acting up or not, it was horrible, but we were glad to see her go.

Jones, a former student at the school, is said to have scouted the premises for a week before carrying out the stunt, getting past security by blending in with other students.

She then accused of returning on a day when eight teachers were absent and ‘got lucky’ as only seven substitutes had signed in, before going to a classroom set up by another teacher, who stayed with her for 20 minutes.

However, after that teacher left she allegedly proceeded to organise students by race and gender, insult them using racial slurs and derogatory statements, and use explicit language — as well as playing loud rap music and bragging about being OK with going to jail.

A 16-year-old boy in the class told authorities that she also called one student ‘fat boy’ and told two white pupils that ‘they were the type to start school shootings’, Independent reports.

Meanwhile Fox6 News Milwaukee reported that Jones was said to have asked if any of the students had a vape or marijuana as the class ‘was so f****** lame and annoying’.

She was reportedly escorted from the school after students raised the alarm and principal Doreen Badillo became aware of what was going on.

So much security theater just to allow someone like this to waltz into a classroom to openly berate children.

five counts of exposing a child to harmful descriptions

Ffs! That's a RIDICULOUS "offense" if I've ever seen one 🤦🏻

I'm not saying that I condone any of the racist parts, of course, but COME ON! Harmful fucking DESCRIPTIONS?!

This sounds exactly like episodes an old friend used to through before working out her bipolar meds.

I would totally pretend to be a substitute teacher. I would teach the kids all the shit they aren't learning like trade unionism, actual socialism, everything that Republicans in America and conservatives in Canada don't want people to be learning but aren't I would try to interest the kids in.

"Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries,"

I don’t support anyone doing anything like this, it’s pathetic and unhinged, not to mention just fucking weird.

That being said, I get it.

Her lawyers have said she suffers from bipolar disorder

I was waiting for it, and there it is, very last line of the article.

This is clearly the behaviour of someone havinga mental health crisis

Insubordinate! And churlish!

Mischievous and deceitful. Chicanerous and deplorable!
