A Clayton County eighth-grade teacher accused of cursing at students has resigned his position, school system spokeswoman Jada Dawkins told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Friday.
The teacher, Allen Andrews, appeared before a judge Thursday on charges involving profanity he was accused of hurling at two of his 13-year-old students in class last month.
Dawkins had few details regarding Andrew’s departure or what it means for the internal investigation of his conduct. Earlier Friday, Clayton school Superintendent Luvenia W. Jackson said the “investigation is not completed.”
Andrews, 48, is charged with disrupting the operation of a public school and disorderly conduct for allegedly directing a rant filled with profanity at two of his 13-year-old students during class, Channel 2 Action News reported.
According to Channel 2 Action News, the Pointe South Middle School science teacher is accused of telling his class, “I don’t need this (expletive) every day. (Expletive) it. Want to talk (expletive) to me every day. Think y’all (expletive) hard and tough. (Expletive) ain’t never seen blood, ain’t see death. (Expletive). I’m real.”
“After making said statements the accused walked out of class and another teacher had to come in and restore order,” Judge Beatriz Scott said in court Thursday, according to Channel 2.
