A Texas substitute teacher was fired after she allegedly"encouraged" in-class fights at the Mesquite middle school where she taught, school officials said Friday.
"Our investigation revealed that this substitute teacher encouraged students to fight each other during class, outlined rules for the students to follow and even instructed a student to monitor the classroom door while the fights took place," it said.The educator has not been named. The Mesquite Education Association did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
No injuries were reported, but video and information from school parent Beatriz Martinez indicates the fighting was rough enough that some students left the classroom bleeding, according toVideo recorded by Martinez's daughter, a student in the class of 12- and 13-year-olds, helped bring the incidents to light, the station reported.
The teacher's role allegedly went beyond the district's claim of laying down rules and assigning lookouts, Martinez said. The substitute rearranged desks to make room, she alleged.
