Jersey Pride

Bail is set at $25,000 for a substitute teacher accused of being drunk in class in Manalapan.

School officials say fourth-grade students at Pine Brook Elementary School knew something was wrong when their substitute fell out of her chair, had trouble getting up and held her coffee mug tightly.

Students alerted the principal, who sent Mary Kaminski to the hospital Wednesday.

The 54-year-old is charged with possessing an alcoholic beverage on school property and child endangerment. Officials say the alcohol was in the mug.

Manalapan-Englishtown Regional schools Superintendent John Marciante Jr. tells the Asbury Park Press Kaminski recently had retired from another school district in New Jersey.
