(AJC) — Atlanta math teacher Shayla Smith allegedly thought students were so “dumb” that they needed her help during testing.
The former 5th-grade teacher at southwest Atlanta’s Dobbs Elementary School denied it, but a tribunal apparently believed that allegation and others and recommended her termination Monday.
Smith was among about 180 Atlanta Public Schools educators accused of cheating after a state investigation triggered by reports in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
