“an apparent nervous breakdown”

A Nashville high school math teacher of 17 years was captured on camera suffering what McGavock High School officials are labeling “an apparent nervous breakdown” during an 11th grade algebra class.

Donald Wood began by yelling at students to “shut up” and speaking incoherently about having “absolute power,” but quickly escalated the situation by throwing chairs toward students.

Mr. Wood was escorted out of the school and placed on administrative leave while an investigation into the incident is being conducted.
