Natalie Munroe, Pennsylvania English Teacher, Suspended For Trashing Students on Blog
by Free Britney at .Natalie Munroe, a high school English teacher in Pennsylvania's Central Bucks School District, has been suspended for going off on students in her blog.
After her school found out Munroe was writing blog posts about her students for her friends and family to enjoy, she was quickly suspended without pay.
"I don't think I did anything wrong," she said on Good Morning America.
Some of her best lines, which could easily be Sue Sylvester quotes if coupled with the Glee character's penchant for bullying, include these gems:
- "Although academically okay, your child has no other redeeming qualities."
- "I didn't realize one person could have this many problems."
- "There's no other way to say this, I hate your kid."
- "A complete and utter jerk in all ways."
- "I hear the trash company is hiring."
Her posts also reference "out of contol," "rude, lazy, disengaged whiners," and "rat-like," "frightfully dim" students who dress like "streetwalkers."

The school superintendent says her behavior was "very egregious" and "certainly could result in termination." Her blog is now being investigated.Asked if it ever crossed her mind that someone would find this, Munroe said, "No, not really, not ever, in fact, it was up there for over a year."
Munroe said that on her blog, she was "not writing it not about anyone specific, they were caricatures of students that I've had over the years."
"It was meant tongue and cheek for myself and my friends, it was not for mass consumption... I'm sorry that it was taken out of context."
"But," she adds, "I stand by what I said."

I have boss like this why is nobody giving him a pink slip ? What a fat pig douchbag
Our kids have enought critics and bullies. They need advocates and champions. While not illegal, this is certainly unethical and utterly belittling. If you want to change your students, help them; Meet with their parents, meet with them, connect with them. This just makes her look like another high school student. News flash: Frontal lobes are not fully developed in teenage years. Or, evidently for some middle-aged teachers.
Ha thats what my teachers say about me.
This woman should not be teaching. She is in a position of authority, part of whose job is to MODEL maturity, wisdom and good decision making. I'd expect a teen to act this way because they're still maturing. But a grown woman? As a parent, I've always stood behind my kids' teachers if there was any question about my child misbehaving in class, but this woman didn't just discuss problems in the classroom or general misbehaviour. She insulted and degraded students. How can any student (or parent) respect her now? Get out of the career, lady. There are many qualified, mature, motivated teachers waiting to do this job. And I really feel sorry for her kids when they become teens.
