LOUISVILLE, Ky. - A teacher heading to her first day at school this week was charged with drunken driving, but later returned to her class.

Sherry Bartlett, 45, a fifth-grade teacher at Slaughter Elementary, had a blood-alcohol content of .20 percent, more than twice the legal limit of .08, when she was arrested Tuesday morning.

...

She returned to class Thursday, district spokeswoman Lauren Roberts said. "It's too early to speculate on disciplinary action," she said.

Had Bartlett made it to school that morning and been found to be drunk, she would have been fired, Roberts said.

The rest of the story...

Absolutely incredible...

She ought to be fired for even thinking about going to school, because she would've made it if she didn't get caught.

That was my thought. I would think they would have at least put her on administrative leave while the investigation is going on.
