P.e teacher its long but i need some help ASAP


Question Posted Thursday June 1 2006, 7:50 pm

i am a 9th grader and at my school we got a pool.today we had to do a 3 by 3 which means swim three laps in the pool and three on the feild and then three in the pool again in less then 15 minutes. this week i havent been feeling to good. my period started of saturday so my stomach has been hurting, and my head. so today for some reason i was having trouble swimming because i was having a hard time breathing. i put in as much effort as i could to do my best becasue this was going to count as a grade. anyways the girls got a 2 minute head start and running isnt my thing and so when i ffinished tgree laps i was almost the last person in. my teacher decided to LOCK the gate that goes from the field to the pool. he told me that i had to go around which meant me in soakin wet clothes walk around the boys locker room and the wait room. so all that work i did was for nothin he is going to make me do it again.. i think that was messed up that he did that and he has no right. am i right? me and my mom r goin to have a talk to the VP about it tomorrow. but i was wondering if that is against the law that he just left us out there. he said i walked the whole thing which wasnt even true i ran as much as i could and when i got tired i stopped i even have other students see me running. and he said somethin that was not called for which was his 97 year old grandma could run faster then me. is the teacher allowed to not watch there students and leave them like that?

Sounds like an extremely poor and insensitive teaher- do not let this issue slide and definitely get your parents involved. I can't believe he/she thought that was an appropriate was to treat their students. At the very least, you should make sure you can switch PE teachers and they get repremanded.

technically, no- the teachers arent allowed to leave their students like that. i mean, what if you got seriosuly hurt, or stopped breathing? i agree with your mom for wanting to go up to the school. i give her props on that one. and it sounds like your gym teacher is way sexist. first off- giving the girls a two minute head start- thats crazy. that right there shows that he has no confidence in his female students whatsoever. then, for the fact that he locked the gate and such shows that hes an ignorant sexist teacher. you both go get him in the morning. what he did was NOT right.

yea, thats deffinitally not right. and its good your doing something good about it. i dont know if its against the law exactly ( and it may depend on the state you live in), but its deffinitally not good. and if you had gotten hurt or kidnapped or something- it would be all his fault. next time you dont feel good, maybe get a note to get you out of gym.. you deffinitally dont want this happening again. he also deffinitally shouldnt be calling you names and such, although he meant it in a motivating way (most likely), you obviously didnt take it like that. so deffinitally talk to your vp and see what he thinks. sorry that happened - good luck though

hope this helps!! :] ♥

i dont know if its illegal, but the school should definitely do something about it. teachers should NEVER insult students. also, during his class you are under his supervision, so if anything were to happen to you while he wasnt watching he would be held responsible, well technically the school but they would hold him responsible for it.

I don't know if it's illegal but he can get into trouble for treating you like that and making rude comments. Don't worry what he said. Sorry I can't help more. Good Luck!

If he left you guys and called you names, then you should talk to the vice principal. I don't think he is allowed, but I am not sure.
