Witchcraft


I haven't heard of a teacher being removed for witchcraft before, but that's one of the accusations swirling around dismissed teacher Lauren Berrios, if she's to be believed. Ms. Berrios contends that her former principal suddenly got religion and decided witches were not such a good thing.

Unfortunately, there are more sinister stories about suspicious injuries to Ms. Berrios' young son, which I'm afraid (if they were to be sustained) even witchcraft would not excuse.

I wouldn't mind having a witch for a teacher, or even being the teacher who happened to be a witch.

"Take that hat off or I'll turn you into a toad. You remember what happened to Bill yesterday, don't you?"

When you get right down to it, that could be a hell of a lot more effective than referring the kid to the dean. Of course, kids being what they are, it wouldn't be long before they were turning us into toads too.
