Bad Teacher Tales: Real talk stories and advice for teachers and those who love them.
Welcome to Bad Teacher Tales, where each week we share the good, the bad, and the “what the hell?!” of daily teacher life. We’ll expose workplace woes that range from unrealistic to impossibly asinine. We’ll postulate on parental problems and admin antics.

Ep. 36 - Lockdown Drill Disaster
In this episode of Bad Teacher Tales, Scara shares a teacher's experience with a lockdown “drill” that wasn’t. Teachers and students panicked, and the chaos was 100% real — even if the danger wasn’t. Scara breaks down the fallout, the frantic texts, and the moments that made everyone question the outcome.
