[From article]
"Rubber rooms, or "reassignment centers," were created by the city Department of Education as a dumping ground for teachers awaiting charges ranging from incompetence to sexual misconduct. The educators are required to report to their room daily and must, by law, be paid their full salary until their matter is resolved.[. . .]
Last year, the city paid its rubber-room teachers $40 million in salaries alone.[. . .][one teacher] was accused of staring at a female student's backside and sent to a rubber room."
