“I’m afraid to go back in there. I can’t trust the children. I can’t trust the system,” Rogers said. “I still have bruises on both of my legs, I still have throbbing in the back of my head and sometimes, I just cry uncontrollably.”<\/p>\n

Video of the altercation shows Rogers, a teacher of 20 years, being dragged in the hallway and punched in the face multiple times by a student. Rogers says the student was upset over her belongings being taken to the principal’s office.<\/p>\n

“I could see the legs and feet of children around me, but nobody helped me,” Rogers said.<\/p>\n

She claims the school district was also no help and wanted her to return to classes the next day.<\/p>\n

“I just stopped crying every day,” she said. “That student was hurting, and it wasn’t even about me. It was something else, and I just happened to be a target.”<\/p>\n

Students carrying out violence is growing in school districts across Missouri and the United States. Rogers says she hopes her story serves as a wake-up call to schools everywhere.<\/p>\n

“Teachers are leaving the profession by the thousands, so that should tell you something,” she said. “These children are so angry. There is something going on that needs to be addressed.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
