The teacher was taken into custody and classes have resumed at the school.
No students were harmed.
The teacher’s name has not been released.
A teacher from Schmid Elementary, fired yesterday, came back to the school today and allegedly threatened students.

It is TOUGH inside a majority of classrooms. The teacher was probably upset because they care about education, and the kids don't. Which results in HORRIBLE behavioral issues. The strength that it takes to be a teacher is soooo underrated! My prayers go up for that teacher.

It dam amazing how these students can hit teachers with chairs, desk and even pull out knives. They practically run the dam school. Students threatened teachers constantly, why isn't they handcuffed. That straight bullshit.
