Teacher Allegedly Whacks Child With Bow

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — A substitute music teacher has been arrested after allegedly whacking a 10-year-old student on the head with a viola bow after telling the class they were "the worst players I've ever heard."

Newspaper and television reports said the trouble began when Carla Shinners, 63, a teacher for more than 30 years in the district, was interrupted by a call on her own cell phone. She allegedly began swearing Feb. 12 at the Creekside Elementary School, where she had earned the nickname "Mrs. Grumpy Lady."

Principal Karen Daly said parents and students complained.

The 10-year-old said Shinners also pulled her hair.

Shinners allegedly said the students complained because she was white and they are Hispanic.

There was no phone number listed for her in Boulder. It wasn't clear if she had retained an attorney.

Briggs Gamblin, a spokesman for the school district, confirmed in a telephone interview Thursday night that she had been fired.

Shinners could face a charge of child abuse resulting in injury. She is free on $1,000 bond.


My old teacher was scary! She'd grab kids by the ear and drag them across the room, scream endlessly, she chewed me out one morning for bringing loose change for my lunch instead of a dollar bill, she smacked us with a ruler, etc... I can go on and on. Now, SHE should have been fired.

Y'all have any stories about your old teachers?

"I believe that no matter what you do, no matter how hard you try, you can not baptize cats." - Larry the Cable Guy

A Tennessee man and an Alabama man were both fighting in a war and were captured by the enemy.
"Before we put you to death," said the enemy, "do you have any last requests?"
"Yes," said the Alabaman. "Could you play 'Yeah, Alabama' before you shoot me?"
"Sure," said the enemy. "How about you, Tennessean?"
"Could you shoot me before you play 'Yeah, Alabama?'"
