That teacher should be fired.

Are teachers allowed to call the drama kids "****" to embarrass them?

What kind of world are we living in when a teacher can't be anti-semitic towards her own students?

Teachers are some of the hardest working members of our society and some of the lowest paid. Republicans constantly bash teachers and then whine they can't attract qualified candidates to the profession. Maybe if we held teachers in higher esteem we'd have better teachers.

Tons of professions protect their workers. Should workers have no protection? What teacher is as protected as a banker who loses millions and then demands we make sure he keeps his job?
Median national salary of an elementery school teacher is $40,160. Middle school and high school teachers make more. Median salary across all Americans is $30,000.

According to the bureau of labor statistics, teachers employed full time worked 24 fewer minutes per weekday and 42 fewer minutes per Saturday than other full-time professionals. Note that this is not time in the classroom, this is total time worked -- it includes time spent grading papers, preparing lesson plans, etc at home.

Teachers, as public sector employees get an average of $7.63 per hour in healthcare and retirement benefits vs the $2.93 private sector employees get.

The US pays the 4th highest average amount per student in the world. For that money, our teachers produce students that rank 15th in reading, 21st in science, and 25th in math according to the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ranking of student achievement for 15 year olds around the world.

Okay, that's my argument for my contention that your comments are pure hogwash. Now where is yours proving that teachers are "among the lowest paid and hardest working members of society"?

Would it be wrong for the Jewish kid to call his teacher a GD *****?

If she is not fired; turnabout is fair play.

That teacher is an effing *****!!!
