Florida teacher quits after seeing students fight each other | 10News WTSP

A Hillsborough County teacher says she is calling it quits. Bianca Goolsby says after blogging and sharing her story, she's hearing from teachers across the district who share many of her same frustrations. She works at Jennings Middle school in Seffner. It's one of 50 high-needs schools using the achievement model to bring up school grades to a C or better for three straight years. Goolsby says she reached out to achievement leadership after seeing kids repeatedly fight and bully each other -- feeling the students and teachers were not safe. “I told them that I'm suffering. I told them that we have to take back our school,” she told viewers in a Facebook Live. She says teachers were told students would not be suspended, and when students found out, their behavior was worse. She read one of her emails sent to her principal in a Facebook Live where she said, “a student was pushed out the window.”
