Substitute teacher fired for “wizardry”

Note to substitute teachers: better not make with the Harry Potter in Florida classrooms. Or time travel back to Salem during the 1600s, as this teacher obviously must have done:

Jim Piculas said he made a toothpick disappear and reappear in front of students at the Rushe Middle School in Land ‘O Lakes, Fla., Local6.com reported. He said he later got a call from the supervisor of teachers, saying he had been accused of wizardry.

“I get a call the middle of the day from head of supervisor of substitute teachers. He says, ‘Jim, we have a huge issue. You can’t take any more assignments. You need to come in right away,’” he told Local6.com.
