US teacher suspended over Facebook posts about students


A New Jersey school district suspended a first-grade teacher after parents complained that she had posted derogatory comments about her students on her Facebook page.
The Record newspaper reports that the teacher wrote about feeling like “a warden” and referred to her 6-year-old and 7-year-old students as future criminals.
The teacher, whose name was not disclosed, was removed from the classroom this week after several parents who saw the posts came to Paterson School 21 and asked that their children be removed from her class.
Superintendent Donnie Evans confirmed the suspension on Friday and said the district was investigating.
