NEW YORK

Feb 26, 2007 - A report on the moral character of teachers isn't encouraging.

Last year, 134 cases were brought to a subcommittee that decides if teachers in trouble get to keep their certification.

That's 28 more than the year before, and almost twice as many as five years ago.

Those cases run the gamut, both criminal and non-criminal, but the bulk have to do with arson, child pornography, drugs, endangering, and larceny.
