Assault on Bartram Teacher Is Third in a Month
Video shows educator flat on the floor following attack.
This is horrifying:
Another teacher has been assaulted at Bartram High, the third such incident in a month.
This week’s incident happened Thursday afternoon, when a student attacked a substitute teacher who’d asked him to leave a classroom earlier in the day, Philadelphia School District officials confirmed.
News — and video — of the incident quickly made the rounds on social media. The teacher received a concussion in the incident, the Inquirer reported, but is expected to make a full recovery. The student has been suspended and has been referred for expulsion.
