You two are really meant to be teachers. With all the stories Dustin shared he still had positive things to say of each student. He told the stories with love and compassion and a smile on top. Appreciate you Keanna and Dustin
Teaching is the most undervalued and under appreciated profession. This is my 34th year. I have stories as well but I think Dustin wins with his epic tales. Most of the times I can deal with an unruly child however a disrespectful parent can make your year challenging. Happy teacher appreciation week to both of you. Summer break is almost here!!!
Dustin, you are definitely "Teacher of the Year'" material. The way you handled the sibling situation was beyond great! I could not handle these types of situations, but I do realize the children of today are entirely different than when I grew up.
Parents really need to be involved with their children behavioral issues. Teachers are seriously under appreciated. They should be treated the best by government and parents. They handle what parents can't or refuse to handle, cos it's draining on them. Teachers need to be highly highly appreciated and encouraged by society as a whole.
Dustin,KEANNA as a former teachers aide I already know what you teachers deal with when you have problem kids in your classrooms..I’ve seen things first hand..as an aide ..and in helping my teacher get thru some challenges as well .. I was commissioned to chase a kid who ran out of the classroom and to no avail couldn’t find the child..my teacher who had taught for years just couldn’t deal anymore w/problems such as that..TEACHERS DON’T GET PAID ENOUGH..and most definitely they need to be APPRECIATED EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THE WEEK..DUSTIN..You deserve a Medal for being a caring dedicated teacher for enduring all that in your career..You definitely would be a great administrator in Education for all of your experiences..Keep On Keeping Your Eyes On The Prize❤❤❤😊
😳 Wow!! That's a LOT!!!! Bless your heart ❤ Dustin, the blessings are flowing for you! Mental health is REAL, FOLKS!!!! Government representatives, do your jobs!!!!!
Keanna your looks were priceless they were so funny I felt bad for Dustin with his first story they don’t pay you enough money for the job you do you two must love what you do my hat goes off to teachers, bless you and your family
Wow Dustin! Unbelievable student stories. The fact that you are still teaching shows your love and commitment to educating children in hopes they will thrive and be successful in life. You’re a gem. Keep doing what you’re doing. Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to you and Keanna. ❤️
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week to you both! Wow! I know you two could write a book. I'm a Substitute Teacher and I know exactly how difficult a classroom can be when you have students with behavior issues. I appreciate the work that our teachers are doing! I wish that teachers were paid more! Thanks for sharing your stories with us!☀️
WOW! These stories were quite frightening Dustin! It is truly amazing that you’re still in the profession!🌺🙏🏾 It was not like this when I taught in Trinidad, but I think it is more stressful on both sides these days. Life was not complicated with gadgets and high tech! Stay strong you two! Your students must appreciate you very much!❤️🌺❤️🙏🏾
Glad you are patient and able to deal with these children. But it is sad that the other children have to deal with these behaviors. As a student I would have had a lot of anxiety from any of these situations.
Because Dustin could manage these children, they were all sent to his class and that was not fair. They should have given you hazard pay.😢 You both appear to find your profession rewarding and we appreciate all that you do and tolerate for the children's sake. ❤❤
I realized early in my teaching career that students who exhibit extreme behavior at school often do so because school is the place where they can release the frustration and rage that they feel about situations outside of school, because no one at school is going to hit/beat or severely punish them for doing it. School is their safe place to get those feelings out. It’s hard and frustrating for the teacher who experiences it. I’ve been there for most of my 25 years in education.
As a retired teacher, but still does substituting I understand the challenges you both face. Teachers don’t receive the appreciation they deserve! It’s wonderful that you 2 fell in love with each other and got married! You both know when you get home you can speak to someone who will definitely empathize.
It is amazing Dustin that you are able to see past the behaviors and say that you love these kids, and they love you, it really shows the kind of person that you are! I couldn’t imagine having to go to work and deal with half of those things.
Am really sorry Justin for all they go through sadly kids are not trained properly in america its very sad. A child can abuse an adult and the adult should not fight back, this is so bad. I hope lawmakers see what they have caused on the schools. Children with mental issues should not be in class with other children, why only the mentally challenged students have rights sad sad sad
I went on a school trip with our kiddo in Grade 1, it had such an impact I knew I could never be a teacher. Big ups and respect to all teachers. They are part of my kiddos village and they know it🎉🎉🎉. Kudos for doing this. A great deal of parents do take your role for granted, if they only knew.
sounds like many of these kids have issues/trauma in their home life. Too many parents don't realize their responsibility in caring for their own children has a great influence in their child's education and how they deal with day to day life situations.
❤ Appreciate for all you two do. You enrich our kids lives. Parents should give upmost respect to you, sometimes you spend the most time with them in today times. Bless you
Teachers, at all levels, have always been my heroes -- for all the reasons you just shared. Thank you for all that you both do. Thanks for sharing. PLEASE, share more student/parent stories. Love you guys!!😍
Kudos to all teachers! I don’t know why you are still so under appreciated and underpaid. I use to dream of becoming a History teacher but life happened and destiny took me in a different direction which I totally appreciate because I don’t have the patience to deal with disruptive or disrespectful children. I worked in NYC School Board as a Food Service Manager for two year in three different school districts and often saw incidents that showed me God’s grace for the change in career plans. I hope someone would think of granting teachers COMBAT PAY given the daily stress exposure. Thanks for your Service!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I'm a mental health counselor, and I was contracted with the public schools in the county. One of my kids had an issue pooping in his pants. There was stress and trauma in his life. If a case like that isn't due to medical issues, refer the child to a counselor.
Dustin you did amazing job and you loved teaching and so many stories about students killing their teachers it's heppenig around schools even here in South Africa and thanks for sharing with us 👍❤️❤️
I only worked as a English teacher for one year in elementary school. My contract was of yearly basis and didn't have a say of where I would teach the next year. That year for being the first time was actually fine. But at nearly the end of the year I was sent to see a junior high classroom, since it's where my next teaching would be. I'm short at 5 ft 6 in tall and nearly all of the students were my height and more. The other thing I saw was how confrontational they were with their current teacher, even though she handled it well. Long story short I decided to not teach again, and never did after that.
Wow Dustin you have had your share of drama.. I retired from teaching pre-k after 33 years and imagine the same situation but with four and five year olds... I kid you NOT... There was one little boy I will never forget ... After destroying the entire class room.... It took three grown ladies to calm him down... And we were pretty big ladies😮..He was three at the time and about 4 years later when he was 7 or 8 we saw him on the news.. He had jumped out of his Aunt's car and was running down the busy highway... I felt so bad because obviously the system had failed him... I don't know what became of him but that was in my 3rd or 4th year of teaching... So that is why I stayed so long... For the kids... I am proud of you both for what you do... And I support you for what you do... But the truth is there if you believe this old gal or not... Make right right again and wrong wrong again!! Don't believe a lie and stop the madness and confusion😢❤ Love them enough to tell them the truth.... 🙏🪅💞 Praying for you guys always teach the masses📝💕🎓
Happy Teachers Appreciation Day to the both of you. Dustin you😂 😂😂😂😂. I have worked in the for 10 years. Mostly special education. I expect that from them but a regular child no.
Bless you for keeping your cool. I only taught 7-8 grade, i did get hit to break up a fight and a blow landed on my face 😤. I got mad and body slam the 5'11 kid up against the blackboard no whiteboards at the time 😢, i kept that smudge there on the board for a long time 😅
Did anyone try to get the student help with his BM situation? I can only imagine what the teachers of today have to deal with, hang in there, my prayers goes out to you.
Absolutely. We had a whole team in place to help provide resources and assist with scheduling appointments to help get to the root of what was transpiring. - dustin
Their needs to be consequences for these children and parents. Because these kids will think twice about their reaction because the school tolerates the bad behavior. Even bringing in Security Guards might make a difference in these classrooms. For every action their is a reaction. I have even tried some of these theories and they even work on Special Needs kids. When they are treated like regular kid's they start to assimilate like the other kids.
The child that pooped his pants had serious psychological trauma going on somewhere! What was his home life like? Did he get medical intervention? Acting out like that is definitely not normal for an 8 or 9 year old child! Thank you both for your service to the children! 💛💛🙏🙏 "In Jesus Christ's Precious and Holy Name"
Dustin definitely needs to be a principal. He has all the leadership traits
AGREED 💁🏾♀️🙏🏻🙌🏻♥️👍🏻👆🏻🤙🏻
Dustin, you definitely deserves the award for the most patient and understanding teacher.
Teacher of the century.
💙🙏🏽👍🥇🏆
Far from it but thank you!

I applaud teachers. This sounds like pediatric psychiatry.....

As a parent I’m traumatized by these stories!!! Jesus be a shield. I appreciate both of you so much but I’d probably be in jail 😂😂..Poor Dustin!
WOW! These stories were quite frightening Dustin!
It is truly amazing that you’re still in the profession!🌺🙏🏾

It’s a crazy world for sure and there’s much to be done to improve the system for both students and educators!

How do you address the parents of the kids that have difficulty?
I only worked as a English teacher for one year in elementary school. My contract was of yearly basis and didn't have a say of where I would teach the next year.

Quite challenging! I take my hat off to you!😢
Aren't you allowed to send children that are misbehaving to the principal's office?
Funny how many if these are horrific!!! Not just compile. Advocate for parent TRAINING.

Correction: I commend you both!
I wonder what became of the child😮. Teachers should be applauded
How is it now at Ron Clark academy?
Happy Teachers Appreciation Day to the both of you. Dustin you😂 😂😂😂😂. I have worked in the for 10 years. Mostly special education. I expect that from them but a regular child no.
2:00 Have been in the business for almost 40 years and teachers deal with a wide range of issues…. Blessings on your efforts
Wow Dustin🥇🏆🏆🏆
Bless you for keeping your cool. I only taught 7-8 grade, i did get hit to break up a fight and a blow landed on my face 😤. I got mad and body slam the 5'11 kid up against the blackboard no whiteboards at the time 😢, i kept that smudge there on the board for a long time 😅
