Rotten apples are bad all over

These teachers failed their students in more ways than one.

A list of rogue city educators accused of abusing their students likewise received abysmal ratings for their teaching, Department of Education records show.

Claudia Tillery, a 42-year-old sixth-grade humanities teacher at MS 35 in Bedford-Stuyvesant was accused in November of engaging in a two-year, drug-fueled sexual relationship with a student.

Perhaps not surprisingly, Tillery received a paltry 6 on the 0-to-99 teacher-evaluation scale for lack of success in improving test scores of some 2006 sixth-grade English students.

Tillery’s alleged affair with the student, which began when the boy was 12, started in 2009, one of the years used in the veteran teacher’s evaluation.

Just last week, Bronx teacher Evelyn Tirado, of the Dr. Richard Izquierdo Health and Science charter school in The Bronx, was accused of punching a 12-year-old student.

Tirado, 53, received a 9 for teaching seventh-grade English at PS/MS 194 in The Bronx during 2007-10. She is currently out on administrative leave, the DOE said.

Another DOE embarrassment is Melissa Dean.

The PS 143 fifth-grade teacher in Queens was accused this month of having students write letters to her boyfriend, a convicted pedophile serving prison time for gun possession.

Dean, 31, received a “below average” rating of 23 percent for teaching English and just average 51 percent in math.

She is in the process of being fired, according to the DOE.

One surprise in the ratings was teacher Simon Watts, a former PS 15 teacher in Springfield Gardens, accused of molesting five children.

Watts, 40, was ranked a respectable, above-average 76 percent for math and average 41 percent for English from 55 students’ test scores.
