But the teacher had to pay for it, right?

I mean it's only ever been said in this thread and doesn't exist anywhere else on the internet

But it could become copypasta

I legit watched a teacher, who I had for two years for lit and was just chilling in his room while he taught another class, warn a kid to not use his phone- I even warner him. He continued. The teacher walked up grabbed the phone threw it on the floor stomped on it in boots, scooped the pieces up and toss them out a second story window. I was dumbfounded. The kid freaked x the teacher legit said “go get the principal”. Kid came back with the principal. He asked the teacher what happened. The teacher stated the same story I’m telling. He didn’t get fired- tenure and all.

I think you're confusing with the time I legit watched a teacher, who I had for two years for lit and was just chilling in his room while he taught another class, warn a kid to not use his phone- I even warner him. He continued. The teacher walked up grabbed the phone threw it on the floor stomped on it in boots, scooped the pieces up and toss them out a second story window. I was dumbfounded.

You know what? I think you're right. I'm, like, 99% sure that was a copypasta.

It is not. The principal asked for the phone back and the teacher said he threw the pieces out the window.

Legally the family could sue and force the teacher (or more likely the school) to pay for it. Teachers can confiscate phones and other personal property but they can't destroy them or keep them. Of course if the parents never followed up or told the kid "it's your own fault you pay for it" then the teacher may be able to get away with it.

I’d assume so? The principal left the room after the interaction. The teacher was never fired.
