teacher assaulted by student, and caught on video

I didn't click through to the link, but I saw the story on the news last night, and they reported that the principal claimed that the teacher brought the attack on herself.


Doesn't that pretty much sum up the pathetic attitude that creates horrible school culture from the top down?

I hope the teacher pressed charges against the kids and sues the principal as well.

ETA:L from the article: "Lewis High was put on probation by Maryland school authorities last year for the high number of violent incidents reported there. Marietta English, the president of the Baltimore teachers’ union, said that the school has taken to not reporting incidents and not disciplining students for fear of being labeled “persistently dangerous,” a designation that would allow students to choose to go to other schools in the city."
