Teachers cannot touch or make children feel uncomforatble or they can be brought up on charges and dismissed.
So now, You have become a Teacher of Students?
Why don't You ask some of the real Teachers on site if I am wrong.

Actually, here in NC, Corporal Punishment is still allowed at the State Level. However, at the county level it's been outlawed in many places (like the county I teach in - Wake)...but there ARE still schools in NC that do practice slaps on the hands, etc. Most of these schools (suprise, suprise) are in very rural areas.
Here is a web site that explains which states allow and which states do not allow teachers to physically punish children:
There are friends who pass like ships in the night, who meet for a moment, then sail out of sight, with never a backward glance of regret...Friends we meet briefly then quickly forget. Then there are friends who sail together, through quiet waters and stormy weather. Helping each other through joy and through strife. And those are the kind who give meaning to life. ~ ⚓ΔΓ⚓~

New teachers started in my district this past Friday (July 28). All teachers begin tomorrow, August 2. Kids start back on Aug. 9th.
Because I teach ESL, my students are in my classes for 2 periods. So far I have 12 students in 1st/2nd periods, 6 students in 4th/5th periods, and 2 students in 6th/7th periods.
Good luck to all teachers on GC. I hope everybody has a great year.
