It's fun to joke about tin foil hats but there really are such people out there I guess.
This is true, not made up. Right after school started this year our special ed teacher at school had to go out on long-term disability leave, so we needed a new one.
My school is a rural school that is part of a 5 school district; the other 4 schools are all in town, we're sort of a remote outlier. We got notified that there was a new Sped teacher at one of the schools in town who was unhappy with her position and wanted to transfer, so they were sending her to us.
On her first day, at our morning meeting, she introduced herself. Wearing this odd looking cloth hat with ear flaps and a bill and a buttoned up lab coat looking garment over her clothes. She proceeded to tell us all about herself. Not her professional self mind you. No, she told us all about her Electromagnetic / wifi allergy. She showed us her special hat and coat, lined with what looked like that shiny mylar foil they make birthday balloons out of. She said she hated to be a bother but would we mind shutting down the school network and making sure to turn our cell phones off on the two days a week she's on campus.
I am no psychologist but it's my personal experience that people who are delusional (bat shlt crazy?) are rarely so in only one area. I have no idea which principal in town hired this loon but she's clearly been offed to us to get rid of. She's made so many kids upset and teachers mad in her brief stay with us that she's already on paid admin leave and will be out of a contract come winter break in two weeks.
