Teacher shows up drunk, pantless to 1st day of school

WAGONER, Okla. - Police say a teacher was arrested after she showed up at school under the influence of alcohol and without her pants.

Lorie Ann Hill, 49, was booked into jail in Wagoner, Oklahoma after she apparently she showed up for her first day of work as a special education instructor at Wagoner High School intoxicated, reported Tulsa World.

School officials contacted police about 9 a.m. Monday after Hill was described as being alone in a classroom "disoriented and without pants," Police Chief Bob Haley said.

Hill allegedly admitted to drinking vodka before coming to work and was charged with public intoxication.




OP NOTE: I cannot blame her! She has to go try her damnedest to teach 30 kids, AND she lives in OK.

I also know from those threads you agree with removing tenure, so again, if this teacher's behavior justifies removing tenure for all teachers as I am pretty sure you believe, then what about my example in regards to the secret service?

That is taking it there.

And I have never been about removing due process rights of any worker, least of all, because of the bad conduct of another worker.

So place your words in someone else's mouth.

So I'd say she did her students a favor.

Maybe she can use this horrible and unfunny experience to help others some day.
