Teacher Handles Delicate Situation
Posted: Mon Mar 06, 2017 6:58 am
A friend of mine, that is a substitute teacher, told me about this the other day.
Last week, a little 6th grade girl comes up to him, as the class was quietly working independently. She whispered to him, "Joey drew a picture of a gun!" he asked her if he pointed it at her and she said, "No, but he knows he's not supposed to do that." He told her, he would speak to him. He tapped Joey on the shoulder and asked him about it and he owned up to it. He then told Joey to fold it up and pretend he had a concealed weapons permit. He was OK with that. My friend said it was probably his last day at that school.
