$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '[')u]Hawaiian teacher drug tests still on hold despite contract agreement

Hawaii teachers accepted an 11% pay raise in exchange for random drug tests, but no drug tests have yet been conducted and some state officials say the union is trying to extract itself from the agreement.


$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '[')u]Middle School Teacher Charged With Having Pot In His Pants

26-year-old Dexter Wade of Enfield was arrested for possession with the intent to sell or deliver the marijuana, possession of drug paraphernalia, and maintaining a vehicle for controlled substances.


$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '[')u]Spending Plan Would Cut 900 Jobs, Close Schools

Plummeting home sales and property values have led local governments across the Washington region to hunt for spending cuts. Montgomery County teachers and other school employees are giving up a 5 percent pay raise next year, saving $89 million.


But how are they going to afford their pot without a pay raise? And how are they going to stand being around all those brats if they aren't high?

We were talking at Xmas dinner about teachers who have affairs with students. My brother's wife's older sister told of how when she was in high school a teacher kept offering her a ride home after school. We have a local high school, Helix High School, that has four pending court cases of teachers having affairs with students. I mentioned the Reese Witherspoon movie Election in which Reese plays a girl who likes older authority figures. Monica Lewinsky is an example of this kind of thing. I recall a school where I worked where a woman teacher had reputed affairs with boys. She never got caught. I remember the stoner kids at a school where I worked inviting me down to a beach party, presumably to groove to the sound of the waves and get high. Temptations abound. I didn't go. The kids aren't all brats, bratticus. btw, I'm watching to see if you remind me of any posters from the past who got banned. Were you? Are you?

Teachers are people, why they should be on pedestals is beyond me.

I have been beaten by one 'teacher' who punched me in the stomach after he escorted me out of class for asking the 'wrong question'.

I have been caressed by a teachers nylon clad foot when I was made to sit on the other side of her desk facing her.

Thankfully all the others who taught me I owe the utmost thanks.
