Just doing their job..

As a teacher, you have to do a lot of disciplining. This usually includes a glance of warning, a verbal warning, an assignment, a phone call home, or finally, a referral to the office. I try not to turn in too many referrals, but sometimes you have to.

There was a teacher in a neighboring school in the same district I teach in. The school is supposed to be the better area and the better school. A teach wrote a student up for skipping, which is something I do on a regular basis. The very next day the student came in and held a gun to the teacher's head asking why the teacher was messing with him.

All I really want to say is that I don't know what the world is coming to. Feeling safe while you are at work should be an added benefit, but I don't always feel safe.
