According to allegations presented to the board, on December 16, 2009, Carico stabbed a seventh grade student multiple times after he continued to pass gas and sing in class.
“Ms. Carico will now receive notice that this board has voted that if these charges are true, then dismissal is warranted,” Hawkins County Director of Schools Charlotte Britton said. The Hawkins County School System first hired Carico in 1973. Up until recently, there was not a single blemish in the tenured teacher’s file.
According to the allegations of fact, when Carico stabbed a student seven times in the left arm with a pen, a camera caught it all on tape. Hawkins County would not turn over that tape to us. The evidence showed Carico lied about what really occurred inside the classroom, Britton said. In the charge for dismissal, Britton gave five reasons that warranted Carico’s termination: unprofessional conduct, incompetence, inefficiency, insubordination, and neglect of duty.

well, I can't blame the woman.
Was this a special needs class? What kind of weird kid spends his time farting and singing?
If she had a spotless record, you have to wonder what happened to her. Could be the kid just drove her over the line.

Um, what about "intentionally harming a child" as a reason for termination???
