NORTHWEST MIAMI-DADE, FLA. (WSVN) - Police are investigating after, school district officials said, a student attacked a substitute teacher at Miami Central Senior High School in Northwest Miami-Dade, and it was all caught on video.

Cellphone video of Monday’s incident was posted on Facebook, where it quickly garnered attention among users.

The footage shows the female student throwing punches at the female teacher near a desk in a classroom at the school, located in the area of Northwest 95th Street and 18th Avenue.

Moments later, the teacher is seen grabbing the student’s hair and pushing her head down before appearing to place the student in a headlock.

Meanwhile, other students were seen laughing and recording the incident on their own cellphones.

The clip, which is about a minute and a half long, only captured part of the fight.

“It’s all over Instagram,” said one student.

Miami-Dade County Public Schools officials said the student involved was not supposed to be in that classroom.

Students at the school have identified the substitute teacher as Ms. Ferguson and said she is typically nice to them.

“I’m shocked because Ms. Ferguson, she’s nice,” said Sabrina, a sophomore at the school. “She would never, like, put hands on a student.”

7News caught up with Theodora Roundtree, an elementary school substitute teacher who saw the video.

“Children don’t have no respect no more, you know?” said Roundtree. “I just hope for the best for the substitute teacher. I don’t understand this generation these days. This is what’s taking place now. I hope things change.”

Teachers need to qualify for passive restraint expertise before being able to enter a classroom to teach.

Like taking a course on the use of a cattle prod.

Such elegance. Such grace. Such je ne sais quo.

That ignoramus is going to spit out at least 3 feral pups. Each by a different, non-caring sperm donor.

And she votes!

So this is what some schools are like in the USA. OUT OF CONTROL! Teachers spend most of their time trying to get the kids to act like civilized humans, instead of feral savages. The effort is largely a failure. And why bother? Certain highly-privileged minorities are going to get promoted no matter what. They will graduate and get accepted, free, into college, and then get jobs they are not qualified for.

We pay for it all, and to thank us for our money, they call us racist.

And if she moves to Dallas, she can enjoy the police chief being blamed for all the crime.

When will charges be filed on that substitute teacher for defending herself?

Seems like to work in a school these days, one needs the same qualifications, capabilities, and situational awareness as a prison guard.

There are certain details I had guess before even clicking the picture...

Stereotypes exist for a reason.
