A teacher in Flint, Michigan, was hospitalized Thursday after a student hurled a chair at her in a classroom attack caught on video. 
The attack took place at Flint Southwestern Academy, and video of the incident showed a female student on one side of the classroom arguing and yelling expletives at a student on the opposite side of the room. As the teacher stood between the students, appearing to try to calm the situation, one of the teenagers picked up a chair and threw it, nailing the teacher in the head and knocking her to the ground.

Flint Community School Superintendent Kevelin Jones addressed the “deeply concerning incident” in a <a href="https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=813401800788038&amp;set=a.522406376554250">statement</a> Friday, saying the teacher who was attacked had been released from the hospital, is “doing well,” and will return to the classroom. Jones added that the student who was involved “will be held accountable according to the law.” 
“We are committed to ensuring that such incidents are thoroughly investigated, and appropriate measures are taken to prevent their recurrence,” Jones added. 
The Flint Police Department issued a <a href="https://midmichigannow.com/news/local/district-says-teacher-released-from-hospital-after-attack-by-flint-student">statement</a> saying it “made an arrest related to an assault at Flint Southwestern Academy” and “An investigation is ongoing.” 
Former Detroit Police Chief James Craig, who is <a href="https://apnews.com/article/james-craig-michigan-senate-run-trump-f90308a4fb4c8cca6aa74b3208654a7b">expected</a> to jump into the Michigan Senate race as a Republican, commented on the video, saying it “captures the sad state of Education in Michigan.”
“[N]o sense of order or direction, no respect for teachers, and worst of all, NO LEARNING. Failure to educate young Michiganders is a recipe for increased CRIME, upticks in UNEMPLOYMENT, and SOCIETAL DISORDER,” Craig said. “Michiganders deserve better.”
