Teacher Jesus Garcia Gets Drunk on Field Trip and Abuses Kids

by Anne-Marie Nichols

no_beer.jpgOn a field trip to Washington, D.C., teacher Jesus Garcia got drunk, cursed at students, spanked them, and flung one on a bed. And now parents are outraged that no charges were filed against the soccer coach and ESL instructor for Immokalee Community School. Florida’s Department of Children and Families is investigating.

After a five-day field trip to Washington, D.C., five fifth graders were in their room at the Embassy Suites when Garcia told the group he was going downstairs and would return in 10 minutes. He returned an hour later drunk off his ass and smelling like booze.

Garcia started cussing and spanked the kids. He picked one of the boys up and threw him on the bed. Then Garcia told another student to kick the boy.

The school chaperones knew something was wrong when the five children did not show up for dinner. When chaperones approached the room, Garcia wouldn’t let the kids open the door. The chaperones found the children frightened and upset. They put Garcia in a separate hotel and paid for a separate flight, which he missed.

School officials immediately contacted the children’s parents. They also fired Garcia and are providing counseling for students and parents.

What a friggin’ nightmare. You’re 12 year old and you’ve worked hard all school year to raise money for a field trip to the nation’s capitol. During the trip a teacher gets drunk, and physically and verbally assaults you and your classmates. Then he practically holds you hostage in your hotel room.

I agree with the parents that Garcia needs to be charged immediately…and get some treatment for his alcoholism.

    Kids really don;t need to be going on 5 day field trips anyways. I would never let my kids go on such a long trip with some wacko.

About Teacher Smackdown

Thank goodness for teachers. Most are passionate, hard working, and decent. For many of us, it’s a teacher who got us where we are today. But that’s not what this blog is about. Instead, Teacher Smackdown identifies the molesters, thieves, and lecherous adults masquerading as teachers in our society. It also gives parents resources and information on protecting our kids and identifying these monsters. Teacher Smackdown – putting the spotlight on bad teachers betraying the public trust one kid at a time. These are their stories.
