Teachers!! what is the worst thing a student has ever done to you or in your classroom?

Question

or any other stories you've heard from other teachers.

Answer 1

Gosh, I've had it super easy compared to you guys. Once on my birthday, a student got stung on both his kneecaps (he saw the bee on his knee and smacked his legs together). It was the first time he'd been stung, and the first thing he said was, "I hate that this happened on your birthday!"
Once one of my students with autism threw an empty book bag on my back (I was squatting picking up his crayons). I was more stunned than anything.
...That's pretty much it. For the most part they love me to death (and I love them to death back- but I've never killed one). And they're young. I guess if I taught older kids my tales would be much different.

Answer 2

Because I am a teacher of middle school students with varying exceptionalities, I run a procedural, busy classroom. There is not much time for anything else. I have had a fight or two break out in the classroom over the last few years. No one was seriously physically injured, and the altercation did not last long.

Answer 3

Well, pretty mild compared to what some teachers have experienced, I'm sure, but I've been called a "b*tch." The male teacher across the hall had a student shove him once. Then, this didn't happen in my classroom, but a student who had already been removed from my class due to behavior problems brought a gun to school.

Answer 4

I have had some funny and not so funny things happen

I had a student that I turned in for hurting an dairy heifer during a lab he in return said I has sexually harassed him. My VP investigated and I was found clear of it, but still ended up with a letter in my personal file detailing that the investigation happened. and on top of that I was made to keep the student in my class for the last 6 weeks of school

I also had my breast grabbed by a female student while I was being evaluated. so embarassing thank goodness the VP did not see it.

I had a fight break out - easy to break up

I had a student try to learn how to the worm across my classroom floor. it was funny. he couldnt do it because of his size

Answer 5

teaching 3rd graders Spanish- a girl asked to go to the bathroom. She had been gone for a very long time so I sent another girl to check on her. The checker came back and said that she was fine, just still in the bathroom. Shortly after the girl comes back. I asked her if she was fine and out loud she said she was constipated. Then a boy asked if that was a girl problem and wanted to know waht constipated meant. I wasn't sure what to tell him so I just kept going with the lesson.

Answer 6

I've been kicked, hit, bit hard enough to break the skin, spat on, and the grossest thing that ever happened was a kid once blew his nose on me! Now i am in special education, not all kids are like that, i guess it just goes with the profession

Answer 7

In one of the cram schools in Taiwan, one of my co-teachers was chased around the class by a particularly disruptive student with a piece of soiled tissue paper - highly amusing (not for him of course).

In a Kindergarten class - one of the kids shoved a plastic tomato in my mouth while I was singing with them. (how I hated having to sing!). This reflects Taiwanese culture - how could I be angry at the little kid when their parents (and particularly their grandparents) spend most of their time chasing their kids around and shoving food into their mouths!

Answer 8

Let's see, shall we?
Stabbed with pencil, spit on, punched, had ripped shirts on several occasions, and was called all kinds of foul, inappropriate names in addition to tolerating several slanderous acquisitions leveled at members of my family.
No joke. This was all within one year's time span while working in a special ed. self-contained environment for emotionally disturbed.
