School of Hard Knocks II
Teacher Carrie Peoples, 63, took a photo of some students in her class at Sharp Learning Center, an “alternative” school in Covington, Ga. When a 14-year-old girl asked her why she took their picture, Peoples allegedly responded “So I can show the world your ugly asses.” After she became upset, the students said, Peoples had several boys throw the girl out the window. She landed on her head and was taken to the hospital with neck injuries. The boys say they complied with Peoples’ order because they didn’t want to be charged with “disobeying a teacher.” Peoples, last year’s “Teacher of the Year” at the school, has resigned, and the district attorney is considering criminal charges.
