The local Board of Education voted on Wednesday to bring charges against Kelly Mascio, who posted this message on Facebook on the very same day
‘Our main concern is that the administration has completely forgone all traditional disciplinary avenues available in handling the incident,’ said Mullica Township Education Association President Barbara Rheault.
‘The administration has selected a disciplinary route that has resulted in enormous emotional and professional turmoil, and has strained the confidence and trust of school staff, parents and community members.’
On the same day, Mascio posted the following message on her Facebook page: 'I call my students "my kids" because in out year together they aren't just kids on my class list, they become a part of my heart'.

I don't understand why the teacher was suspended, she did the right thing. She reported the incident immediately according to the article and now she ends up getting suspended, that's not fair!!!
Now teachers gonna just turn a blind eye cuz they don't wanna lose their jobs.
