Teacher Fired After Allegedly Biting Boy
Mar 14, 9:44 PM (ET)

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - School officials on Tuesday fired a middle school teacher charged with biting a student who would not spit out a piece of candy.

Caroline Kolb pleaded not guilty in Jefferson County District Court to fourth-degree aggravated assault for allegedly biting the 14-year-old student on the back during a classroom altercation in January.

Jefferson County Public Schools fired Kolb for insubordination and conduct unbecoming a teacher following a district investigation, according to a copy of her termination letter obtained by The Courier-Journal.

The letter said that Kolb at one point denied intentionally biting Garrick Hudson.

A call on Tuesday by The Associated Press to Kolb's attorney, William Rump, was not immediately returned.

Lauren Roberts, a spokeswoman for the school district, said Kolb received the termination letter Tuesday.

"Based on the evidence," Roberts said, "termination was deemed the appropriate action in this case."

The student's mother, Cassandra Hicks, said the incident occurred Jan. 11 when her son disobeyed Kolb's order to spit out some candy. Kolb told him to stand in the hallway, but he returned to get his books, she said.

As Kolb and Garrick struggled over the books, he fell and hit his head and she "started biting him on his left upper shoulder."

Garrick was treated at Kosair Children's Hospital for a bite wound, according to court records. He also had a small knot on his head.

According to Kolb's termination letter, two students said they saw her bite him, and several staff members said they later heard Kolb admit doing so.

"You denied biting the student but admitted that you found fabric in your mouth during the incident," the letter stated.

Before her firing, Kolb had been reassigned to non-instructional duties.

In 2004 and 2005, administrators had warned Kolb to avoid being physically confrontational with students, according to her termination letter.

They had this teacher from Northern California on Howard Stern this morning who was fired for talking about his erections he'd get during class with his 8 year-old 3rd graders.

He said he would often times go masturbate in the staff restroom to get rid of "the problem."

Unreal!!

Stern told him, I'm sorry sir but I don't stand behind you in this quest to get your job back and hope that you never get a job teaching children again.

This guy is married with two kids by the way.
