The teachers’ watchdog says Low swore at the students, calling them “f***ing bitches” and told them they were disrespectful and rude.

When one of the students responded saying that she was “shook,” Low responded “you should be, f***ing bitches.” It escalated to the point where one student left the classroom sobbing.

In June, the district handed Low a letter of discipline and suspended him without pay for three days. If Low does not complete the course, his teaching certificate could be suspended.
