I haven't seen anything suggesting the teacher got into a shouting match with this girl. And her being removed from the class didn't give her a feeling of justification. The fact that she refused to follow the authority figures present multiple times already proved that she felt justified in her actions well before the cop showed up.
Suspension is a punishment applied AFTER the fact. A teacher cannot and should not be reasonably expected to allow students to behave however they see fit while the behavior is occurring. Teachers are taught to phone for assistance to have a student removed from a class if they don't comply with their instructions. It prevents learning, encourages repeat offenses, and undermines the authority of the teacher if they simply allow it to continue, hoping the student just "makes an ass of themselves" instead.
I agree with this... but lets not forget that we are dealing with children here. With that being said, non compliance from a child shouldn't have yielded corrective tactics that are reserved criminals in a precinct..
Do you think the argument can be made that the way the cop extradited from her from the class was just as disruptive as her prior behavior...?
