Did you ever have a teacher who was fired under very sketchy circumstances? Whether the teacher was caught intoxicated on the job, stole from work, or was inappropriate with a student or another faculty member, it seems like every school has a story.
Over on Reddit, people are gathering to share their “why did that teacher get fired” stories, and some of them are outrageous while others are just depressing.

“Geeky A/V teacher that everyone loved. Knew he was a geek and owned it. Caught in a predator sting trying to solicit underage girls. The kicker was a spring school levy was coming up, local police conspired with the school district to hide the charges for 3 weeks until the levy was passed. Someone substituted his class for 3 weeks. Yea everyone was both devastated and pissed. The district ended the school year early.” — ra4332
