THERMAL, Calif. – A Southern California school teacher has been arrested for allegedly teaching while drunk.

Toro Canyon Middle School teacher Tonya Neff was taken to the Indio jail Tuesday afternoon and booked for investigation of felony child endangerment.

Administrators at Thermal's Toro Canyon Middle School told the Riverside County Sheriff's Department that the 47-year-old teacher was apparently intoxicated on campus.

Sheriff's Sgt. Mike Tapp says Neff had taken prescription drugs and alcohol and an alcoholic beverage was found inside a container.

Coachella Valley school district Superintendent Ricardo Medina says there was never a threat to Neff's seventh-grade students. Neff has been placed on leave.

I am bad....were her lessons more fun?

Couldnt resist!
 
Does she teach drunk talk?

HAHA!...Someone did say that more than likely some of the students were "higher" than the drunk teacher was....Dunno how one teacher can handle a classroom of 13-14 yr. old pre-teens!....Just 3 at home drive me batty sometimes....

Seems the teacher must be overwhelmed or burnt out...should have asked for a leave of absence or something, for whatever is hurting her. And I don't believe one iota that she is the only teacher who has done this! If not alcohol, then prescription drugs.

5 days a week with 20-30 kids in a classroom?? No thanks! Lock me up first in the loony hospital,,,I do admire teachers that can handle it.
