Fired Teacher Who Dragged Girl By the Ankle Reinstated

The middle school teacher in Tiverton, Rhode Island in 2015 had a female student who sat on the floor and refused to move to go to her next class. At one point he asked if he needed to drag her out of the classroom, and and when she said yes, he did; he was later fired, but the state education commissioner overturned the decision a couple of weeks ago.
