[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, it could have happened. Some teachers have very little empathy. It’s unusual, but not rare enough for teachers to shame students. I work in a school as a specialist and have heard a lot, including a teacher loudly berate a second grader who has a IEP for fine motor difficulties for not tying their shoes. Kids remember the stuff that hurts. The OP should ask for more details from the school and stay calm, but if that happened to my kid, I would take the same approach as the elementary principal who posted above. I’d want them to apologize to my child, and then I’d want them moved to a new class so they could learn from a teacher who is able to handle students with learning challenges without publicly shaming them.

This is beyond saying a shaming comment to a student, which I could believe.  The walking a kid down and interrupting another teacher, in a totally separate class, that has nothing at all to do with your student, just to make more a joke if it isn’t believable.  No teacher, even bad ones, would do this.  That is weird and psycho [/quote]

What an inane comment. There are teachers who have been convicted of sexually abusing their students, but a teacher who got overly frustrated and lashed out at a student would never never do something as terrible as embarrassing a student? Remember this case at success academy?

Teachers are human. And they can behave as badly as the rest of us. [/quote]
