So how do teachers have a right to suspend students because they viewed a toy gun in the child's room during an online school session?

All I can say is if I were the parent I'd be on a rampage.

Enough is enough.

This is SERIOUS. Online learning should be taking power AWAY from these busybodies. Instead, they extend their grip to INSIDE YOUR OWN HOME... I mean cops calling and everything. SO WHAT if my kid has toy guns in his room... It's MY HOUSE dammit. They'd flat lose their mud over what my kids had in their rooms if a toy gun gives em the willies. And even at that, it ain't NONE of their business.

Compare and contrast: 1990, North Dakota, virtually every pickup in the parking lot had a rifle rack in the back window, and real guns in the rifle rack. This was so the students could go hunting in the limited daylight after classes concluded for the day. No one soiled themselves, least of all the faculty.

A generation later and teachers are going all incontinent over a toy, not in 'their' classroom, but in the home of a student likely miles away.

Jesus wept.

You also described the student parking lot of my Central California high school, albeit 2 decades earlier.

Since parents defending their families against this kind of crap from schools and social workers, it's time, I think, for parents in worst cases to go after the abusive teachers' and social workers' credentials and personal assets. Bullies understand consequences better than they understand their targets escaping relatively unharmed.

Yep, in the 70's it was common in SLO county California. No one thought a thing about it.

Well, in the fall they might've been thinking about dove and pheasant seasons,   . Maybe even deer season.

I guess I've seen it all now.

Central NY until 1980.
Parents need to sue and the teacher needs to be fired and the administration needs to get their heads out of their @$$e$. And I am a Public high school teacher. So just to be clear. He is suspended, which means he has to stay HOME and they still have to give him virtual education. Morons, complete total Morons.

With remote schooling, how does a suspension work then? Is his virtual education time at a separate time, away from his regular classes? Or is this just an entry in his cumulative file but he still "attends" the online classes?

FWIW, I totally "get" much @#$% like this frustrates you and other good educators.

I am not bragging or  complaining when I say this: we go cancelled in March. I teach $ dual enrollment College classes, and I had a gut feeling this was going to happen. Our district has a system called Canvas which allows you to prepare lessons, videos, tests, etc... for remote learning. I got a quick and dirty lesson on how to use the system from a friend of mine at the college and began to prepare lessons for the final 9 weeks for my DE kids. Once that was done I went back and filled in all of the lessons to that point, so I would have stuff ready for this year whether we went back or not. After that I spent the rest of the summer putting ALL 8 of my classes online. I like to anticipate and I did not want to hand in half finished or rushed content.

This is the outcome for one of the cases in the OP video:

A Year After Sending Cops To A Kid’s Home, A Colorado Springs School District Apologizes

https://www.cpr.org/2021/09/10/a-year-after-sending-cops-to-a-kids-home-a-colorado-springs-school-district-apologizes/

A year after two officers went to a Black seventh-grader’s home in Colorado Springs over a toy gun, the school district apologized to the family.

Widefield School District 3 handed the apology letter last month to the parents of 13-year-old Isaiah Elliott. CPR News obtained a copy.

It says, in part, “The District deeply regrets the impact this incident had on the Elliotts, and apologizes to Isaiah for any embarrassment or discomfort he may have experienced.”

Glock doesn't make a neon-green orange-tipped-barrel 9 mm labelled "Zombie Hunter"? Who knew?

Parents, I would be tempted to put some sort of filter on the camera where it blurred the picture (glass with Vaseline smear) and did a tunnel view (some sort of tube).

Maybe hang a banner behind the computer station: "What is behind this banner is none of your damn business!"

How about an American Flag? Or is that too much of a trigger for these goons?

That kid has been in sh*t for a year over this, and there is no apology which will make that right.
