Driven to drink


Hey, if you didn't bring enough to share with everyone... Anne teaches at Bayshore High School in Manatee, Florida, and was tested at 0.112% blood alcohol level during the school day. Not sure if there was a kegger going on in the teachers lounge, or if she just had a five martini lunch! She was busted by the principal who smelled booze on the breath. Either Anne needs to get into the 12 steps or should switch to vodka and orange juice. Bottoms up!

Drunk Bus Driver Takes N.Y. Students On Wild Ride



The excerpts from the news article sum up the event well: "Surveillance Video Shows 3 Dozen Terrified Kids Begging 55-Year-Old Martha Thompson To Stop The Bus" and "The bus hit high speeds, ran over a mailbox and started rolling backwards downhill." I think a lot of college students can relate to this experience, you just never expect little kids to be passengers in a nightmare ride like this.


Texas Tech Students Rented School Buses To Party

Story: Texas Tech Students Used School Buses To Party

It sure was nice of the Plainview school district to rent out their school buses for frat boys to party in. It's good to know they now have a safe place to get liquored up on the weekends. I wonder how many elementary school kids learned what Jello shots smell like on their way to school Monday morning.


Teacher accused of offering teens wine, sex

Story: Teacher accused of offering teens wine, sex

For most guys, this doesn't sound like such a bad offer- Why don't you come over for some wine and sex? But when you're a 15-year old boy getting pinned against a wall by your friend's drunk mom, it probably gets a little weird. The sex never happened though. Five years from now, I wonder who will regret this night more- the woman or the boy?


Indiana Principal Arrested for Drunk Driving...While Wearing Dress

Story: Indiana Principal on Leave After He Allegedly Drove Drunk Wearing Dress

After getting arrested for a DUI and having your mugshot taken with a pink dress and high heels (they made him take the wig off), I honestly don't know if you're ever gonna be able to regain the respect of your students or parents. Is it too late to retire and get a gig at the 801 Cabaret Club in Key West?


Oviedo High teacher resigns over student DUI arrest


Story: Oviedo High teacher resigns over student DUI arrest

Mistake #1- Teacher invites high school students to hang out at her house
Mistake #2- She starts to get liquored up with the teens
Mistake #3- She gives the drunk students keys to her SUV to drive home
Mistake #4- The kids crash the vehicle and get arrested for underage drinking, leaving the scene of a crime and a DUI

Somewhere along this time-line you would hope that common sense would kick in.


Students to get breathalyzers in school

Story: Students to get breathalyzers in school

Students getting drunk during the school day must be a huge problem in Foxborough. This story really makes it clear that our white schools are facing their own challenging obstacles in education. But I wonder if the teachers will be subject to these tests as well?


Bristol teacher charged with driving drunk on way to school

Story: Bristol teacher charged with driving drunk on way to school

The teacher lost her job last year because of alcohol-related issues. But due to the forgiving education system, she is back teaching again. So now she was caught drunk on the way to school, which also means she was planning on being drunk in the classroom all day. I guess Bloody Mary's are now part of a balanced breakfast. You can tell she really cares about the safety and well-being of others. And we wonder why some students just can't get ahead academically.


Fox Lake teacher paid students with drugs, alcohol

Story: Fox Lake teacher paid students with drugs, alcohol

The teacher was going to let some 14-year old girls learn the value of a hard-earned-dollar by giving them some chores to do around her house. But instead of paying them with cash, she thought they would benefit better with weed, booze, and prescription pills. Do you have to claim illegal substances on your year-end tax earnings?


Daytona principal charged with DUI


Story: Daytona principal charged with DUI

What does a principal do after crashing his car on a Monday night, then gets arrested for driving under the influence, careless driving, and resisting arrest? He takes a day off then goes back to work on Wednesday. Making $85,000/year, you gotta wonder how bad his job actually is if he needs to get that hammered on a school night! Talk about a bad case of the Monday's.


Drunk mom drives son to school

I guess her idea of a well-balanced breakfast includes a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon and a shot of Wild Turkey.


Teacher quits after being charged with attack at Busch



I'm sure every one of us has gotten drunk at a ball game and tried to push a handicapped employee out of his wheelchair at least once in our life. She is saving herself the embarassment of returning to school, but at the young age of 25, she has a long time to go until she gets to Hell, where stunts like this will be appreciated.


Wyandotte schools probes teachers' year-end party

Story: Wyandotte schools probes teachers' year-end party


While most teachers spend the day after the last day of school turning in grades and cleaning their classrooms, this wild bunch decided to rent out a clubhouse at a golf course and throw a huge drinking bash. Local golfers were less than amused to be witnesses of public intoxication, public nudity, and public urination. I agree that teachers deserve a day to unwind and celebrate, so here are some tips for next year: Be a little discreet about the fact you are teachers, find a little more private of a location, and don't buy the booze with district funds!


Manvel teacher accused of working drunk, kissing student

"Wanna make out?"




Talk about going out in a blaze of glory. After deciding that teaching wasn't really for him, he figured that getting liquored up and trying to make a move on one of the students was a good note to leave on. What he neglected to factor in, was that not too many future employers are going to jump on a resume that includes public intoxication and assualt on a minor. Hindsight is 20/20.


New Trier caper: Beer photo slipped in yearbook


A picture of a beer can in the yearbook is rattling this high school. No one can figure out how it got there. More shockingly, the drinking age is 21- So how could a minor obtain a can of beer?! We are going to uncover every stone to help the yearbook editor solve this mystery.


Xavier students rally around ousted high school teacher


Ask yourself if you've ever spent the night with a girl before. If the answer is yes, then you better thank god (well not the Catholic god), that you still have your job. This teacher had a couple drinks and crashed with his girlfriend. According to his school and religion, that is a big "no-no." In other words, they would have much rather seen him drive home drunk.


Pa. high school orders shot glasses as prom favors

Bottoms up! The school says the class didn't have the funds to buy picture frames or money clips like in years past. Well, when times are tough, turn to the bottle right? I wonder if the school also plans to foot the bill of the hotel rooms and supply students with condoms as well?


Drunken driving arrest for Mass. high school prom limo driver

Story: Drunken driving arrest for Mass. high school prom limo driver

A school in Rhode Island had to ban limos to prevent drunk driving on prom night. I guess we now have to factor in the limo driver getting boozed as well. Students became suspicious when the he kept trying to talk them in to swinging by the Taco Bell drive-thru on the way home. Maybe next year we'll just let mom and dad drive.


Edgewood teacher resigns over bar "field trip"

Hopefully this teacher understands why some people might object to her taking underage students to a drag show and buying them alcohol. I just googled "Good Ideas" and I couldn't find this one anywhere in the search results. Weird!


Teacher Accused Of Getting Teen Drunk

Story: Teacher Accused Of Getting Teen Drunk

While playing drinking games with a 16-year old, the underage girl "got sick." This most likely means she puked, blacked out, and maybe needed her stomach pumped. Following the tone of irresponsible behavior, the teacher/host did not seek medical attention. What a shock! For the record, the legal drinking age in Tennessee is still 21.
