Principal Tyee Chin banned the student for five days — to a two-hour after-school program.<br /><br />The teen can return to class on Monday, but Ghastin won’t be there. She was sent to a DOE office to do clerical tasks, an exile she calls a “rubber room.”<br /><br />Ghastin — who has taught in The Bronx and Queens for 19 years, five of which were at Flushing — said the teen was disruptive. He walked in late, talked to others and wouldn’t take out his notebook. She repeatedly told him to move his seat away from pals, but he refused.<br /><br />The teen then “went berserk,” Ghastin said. “He jumped out of his chair, rushed toward me and raised his arm,” encased in a hard cast from elbow to hand.<br /><br />“I’m going to beat the s–t out of you,” Ghastin quoted him as yelling. “I’m a boxer, so I can really f–k you up.”<br /><br />‘I’m going to beat the s–t out of you. I’m a boxer, so I can really f–k you up.’<br /> - the student allegedly yelled at Ghastin<br />The slim, 45-year-old teacher was so scared, she couldn’t move.<br /><br />“I was petrified,” she said. The other students were stunned.<br /><br />That’s when she uttered the warning, “If you beat me, I’ll kill you.”<br /><br />“That stopped him in his tracks,” Ghastin said. “He walked out of the room. That saved me.”<br /><br />But the teen marched to the office to complain that Ghastin threatened him after telling him to “Move your ass.” Ghastin insists she told him to “move now — move fast.”<br /><br />Other Flushing teachers have documented incidents of disrespect, aggressive behavior and foul language by kids.<br /><br />“I DO NOT FEEL SAFE . . . in my classroom,” one wrote about a boy who repeatedly harassed teachers and fellow students.<br /><br />The students who want to learn suffer, Ghastin said. “We have some great children, but a lot of them will transfer out,” she said.<br /><br />Ghastin’s removal left her 270 students — 10 freshman English classes — in the lurch. She had already prepared their final exams, which covered the book “I Am Malala,” about the Pakistani schoolgirl shot by the Taliban. She left the exams for a substitute.<br /><br />Chin did not return a call. The DOE said Ghastin will remain “reassigned” pending an investigation of the allegation against her.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-2542115691585813922016-05-29T06:17:07.087-04:002016-05-29T06:17:07.087-04:00Did your visit to the hospital to organize nurses ...Did your visit to the hospital to organize nurses result in getting Goldman MORE votes?Unity Slugnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-90501645083465866152016-05-28T19:50:45.979-04:002016-05-28T19:50:45.979-04:00I believe the slate numbers were at the very end o...I believe the slate numbers were at the very end of the packet here https://www.dropbox.com/s/lgbtniby7e864vd/UFT%20Officer%20and%20Exec%20Board%20results%202016.pdf?dl=0<br /><br />Is that what you mean?
