"Zero defect policy. Nice way to run schools and teachers." <- Favorite quote from the article's comments. There's an overall deficit of good judgment from everyone involved, it would seem, but the poorest judgment comes from the "interim superintendent." http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/03/03/469047582/students-use-petition-to-call-for-teachers-return-after-racy-photos-emerge?utm_source=facebook.com&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=npr&utm_term=nprnews&utm_content=20160303

The student should be expelled and the superintendent fired.

I am absolutely disgusted that the school's reaction to one of their teachers having her privacy violated and her body put on display for the world to see WITHOUT HER KNOWLEDGE OR CONSENT is to FIRE THE VICTIM! The student should have been turned into the police, end of story. Instead, you choose to punish the victim who's worst crimes were 1. To dare have an adult life OUTSIDE of school and 2. Not protect HERSELF well enough against a snooping pervert. Seriously sickening.

Ridiculous. Her phone was stolen and accessed without permission. Why should the teacher pay for a crime committed by her student?

Way to teach the student responsibility for their actions. It is absolutely ridiculous that the teacher is being punished for the students actions.

The response of the interim superintendent to the crime committed by the student against the teacher is one of a typical sociopath. Basically, he's saying she deserved to have her phone picked up, rifled through, and private photos posted online. If anything, he should be the "former" interim superintendent, and she should have her job back. As for the student, he should be punished by the school as well as by law. You leave other people's property alone. Duh. That's about the most basic principle of human relations.

The teacher may have been negligent - I don't know the details - but it seems inconceivable that the administration's first reaction is not to come down decisively on the student for taking a teacher's phone and searching through it. This school seems to have lost its way.

This is an awful situation that she is in no way in the wrong for. Pure sexism and a frustrating amount of idiocy on the school's part.

The school district would have acted differently had the victimized teacher been male. Thanks for demonstrating the latent sexism in the system.

Unbelievable! With having such a shortage of good teachers that they would fire a teacher over a student stealing her phone. Expell the kid for stealing her phone and give her her job back.

Everybody should be free to have private pictures on his/her phone.

And you wonder why children and now adults have no respect for others. Let's not punish the child for stealing the phone, no let's punish the teacher because she doesn't have 360 degree vision and didn't see the student steal her phone while she was teaching. Disgusted!

Just goes to show you what happens when kids are not brought up to respect other people and their property. The student needs to be punished. (arrested)
