[quote=Anonymous]I'm a sub inbetween jobs (i'm not a pro teacher) somewhere out west. There is a student who when she enters the class, uses snap chat to take a picture of me and snap it (i don't know if she puts it in her stories or sends it to someone(s)) on snapchat. Other students have tried likewise but when I tell them 'no', they listen, unlike her. I'm usually pretty easy going and as long as the kids do their work and are productive, i let a lot of things slide. The first time this happened, I kept saying no and she ignored my request. The second time it happened, it was in the library and I didn't want to make a scene. Today she thought she did it covertly by holding her phone low and walking past but I clearly saw her screen since i think snapchat uses only the front facing camera?

I feel like i'm going to get into a ricegum situation and yank her phone out of her hand and throw it against the wall the next time this happens. I've told her the first time that it was an invasion of privacy and to please stop and she didn't listen.

Should i take this to the administration or will they laugh at me? I asked her 'would you do this to another teacher, it's weird' and she laughed and goes 'sure sometimes, they wouldn't care' - but i think that was a bs answer.  I didn't want to pull her out of class and talk to her one on one about in the hall way either - i felt that would look weird since i'm not a regular teacher.

please advise.
