[quote=Anonymous]Did I post this already?  Apologies if I did.  My son is in high school and has a great first period teacher.   She's very clear on expectations, great instructor, and maintains classroom focus and safety pretty well.

A week or so ago, two kids came into class late, which the teacher hates, but they reeked of weed and were obviously high.  Probably came in after hotboxing out in the parking lot.   The whole class was just staring at them, and she told them to report to the office.   They wouldn't go and were just giggling, playing on their phones.  And she stood up and told them to leave.   They rolled their eyes, and the guy said "f you bi...." and they left.

Not violence, but so disruptive, and the other kids' learning gets disrupted too.   I am sure teachers DO NOT want to put up with this stuff.  If it's a one-off, it's not as bad.   However, these types of disruptions are a fairly regular occurrence.

Anyway, no consequences for those kids.   The high school can't do anything when kids smell like weed anyway, even if that alone is disrupting the class.  But apparently it's difficult to get obviously high kids out of the classroom too.
