ORLANDO, Fla. -- A Central Florida substitute middle school teacher is being accused of watching two students fight in a classroom and not doing anything to break it up.

The fight, between two seventh-grade girls in a classroom full of students at Robinswood Middle School in Orlando, was captured on another student's cell phone.

"I'm concerned for her safety. If this is how they handle fights in the school, I hope there's another school that's better or can accommodate me and my daughter," Sharon Graham, the mother of one of the students involved in the fight, said.

Graham said her daughter fought to protect herself.

But the school's principal told Local 6 News that the substitute teacher, an unidentified man, followed protocol, calling an adminstrator when the fight broke out.

"The teacher was just sitting there, and as soon as they started hitting each other, the teacher had called someone else," student Partrick Charite said.

Witnesses also told Local 6 News that the substitute teacher said, "Let them fight," during the scrum.

Local 6 News reported that another teacher eventually broke the fight up.

The girls involved in the melee were each suspended for 10 days.
