This is not far from where I grew up.
Clearly a poorly thought out "joke", but I think it's getting blown out of proportion. Should have been handled by the parents and the school district, but of course everything has to go viral these days. She needs some sensitivity training and a suspension. This woman was actually named teacher of the year at one point. I don't think it's worthy of ruining her entire career.
Just my opinion.
What if that was your child ?
I'd be up at the school quick fast and in a hurry. What I wouldn't do is notify the media or try to ruin a person's life over a stupid attempt to be funny.
It was in poor taste, but we've all done things in poor taste. -
Nah ..? That ...your child is watching how you respond w/This one..A message has to be sent..Just like every black poster here lessened there blows when it was found out a black woman did this..Color doesn't have ? to do w/It from the beginning...She gotta Go!!!!

That's the first I've seen of that picture, last I read they weren't identifying the teacher.
My daughter would witness her mother handle an unacceptable situation with a level head. Humans ? up, and yes, we may have to pay for our ? ups, but I would be okay with some training and disciplinary action, and a personal apology to my daughter from the teacher.
I think a sincere apology and an explanation that she made a bad choice (which is what they teach at my daughter's school) that she regretted would be exactly what she would need to hear to make her feel better about the situation.
Parents overreacting and turning a hurtful experience into some national debacle at their kids expense wouldn't be the right way to go..but that's just me. -
I'm gonna need you to Toughen the ? up...This Isn't Seventh Heaven or any other fantasy sitcom..U mentioned she was teacher of the year...Well the same way she was honored ,should be the same way she is embarrassed as that kid was...Locally,nationally holds no weight...Put your foot on her neck & break her

Do you even have kids? -
Lmao..Yes 2 Girls 9 & 15 -
Lmao..Yes 2 Girls 9 & 15
Mine is 9 as well.
It's funny you say I should toughen up, when I find your view a little bitchmade. Different strokes I suppose. -
Ehhhh Agree to Disagree ..The fake venom you have for my views ,I need for you to focus that on the teacher...We're done here

My teacher said I looked like a one back in 01
Me and him proceeded to score on each other the rest of the day.

I don't understand how this was supposed to be a joke, it's not even close to being funny. Maybe if she handed out awards that said "fun police" or "negative nancy" etc then I could kind of see how she thought it would be funny but terrorist and blending in with white ppl. This lady needs to find a new career if she thinks giving ? like that children is a joke. Type of woman to put period blood in your soup and say "jk" after you eat it all.

Different careers have different consequences. When you're a teacher things you do in poor taste that affect your students isnt just a normal ? up -

This is where you being white and not understanding the pov of a person of color comes into play. Certain "jokes" have larger connections to ? in the past and putting that onto children from a teacher is a sign of a serious lack of judgement. You dont tell a little black child they are most likely to blend in with white people. Thats not a joke...and not something you say to a child. -
I guess it really just boils down to how serious you find the offense. It was stupid and out of line no doubt, but I think her entire tenure as an educator should play a part.
Personally, I don't feel the offense warrants overlooking all the good she's done and ruining her permanently. -
She ruined her own career by deciding to hand out those "awards"
-
She's still a ? . Some kids can hold on to something like that for a long time and believe that kind of stuff. She's irresponsible and the certificates do nothing to further knowledge or wisdom to a child not even in high school. "Most likely to get thrown across a room"
-
Yeah okay, clearly we have different opinions on the matter so we can leave it at that.

What they did was mean and needs to be brought into the light . Bullying is not acceptable no matter who is doing it.
They also gave awards like " most likely to cry at anything " " most likely to not pay attention " to a child with disabilities
TEA does ALOT of things administratively... this deserves more than a slap on the hand
Oh course she has remorse after the fact ....they usually do

I agree that something like that might stick with a kid because they do look up to their teachers, which is why a sit down and a sincere apology and explanation to the child would be a requirement. They need to hear from her directly that she made what she thought was a joke, and that she doesn't truly feel that way about them.
It's real easy to judge and condemn, but that's not how I raise mine. She's taught that sometimes we mess up but it's how we handle it that is really important. She would forgive her teacher. -
