UPDATE: Teacher charged with drunk in public
http://www.loudountimes.com/index.php/news/article/teacher_charged_with_drunk_in_public/
Thu., Jun. 2 | 08:53 AM - A fourth grade teacher at Creighton's Corner Elementary School in Ashburn was charged with drunk in public during the school day June 1.
A Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office School Resource Officer was called to the school shortly before 1 p.m. after school personnel reported a teacher was believed to be under the influence of alcohol, said Sheriff’s Office spokesman Kraig Troxell.
Police said that Laura Ann Collins, 43, of Leesburg, was under the influence of alcohol and charged her with drunk in public.
“There are indications that she consumed alcohol during school hours,” Troxell said when asked whether police believe Collins showed up to work under the influence or drank after arriving at work. He would not go into details on where the alcohol consumption is believed to have taken place.
According to Loudoun County Public Schools spokesman Wayde Byard, Collins was participating in a training at the school at the time.
“She was not interacting with students yesterday, so there was not an issue of student safety here,” Byard said.
Collins has been placed on paid administrative leave by Loudoun County Public Schools.

ASHBURN, Va. (WUSA) - A fourth grade teacher faces drunk in public charges after an incident at Creighton's Corner Elementary School Wednesday.
Laura Ann Collins, 43, was charged after other employees noticed a problem, according to Public Information Officer Wayde Byard. He stressed Collins was not interacting with children, but in a training session at the time. He said administrators called the Sheriff's Department.
A Loudoun Sheriff's Department school resource officer responded to the school and issued a breathalyzer test to Collins who lives in Leesburg. A spokesman for the Sheriff's Deparment would not disclose Collins's blood alcohol content.
A spokesman for Loudoun County Schools says the incident happened while Collins was in training, not teaching. He says she's been employed by Loudoun Co. Schools for 20 years and her status is now "pending."

Stuck in a mandatory (presumably boring) training instead of her normal job. While we crack jokes often enough at work about bringing in drinks for those occasions, no one actually has done it to my knowledge...

With a face like her's, seems like the only one that should be drinking is her husband. Eesh! What a face!
