Yesterday on october 26th, Ms. Skelly said the n word. I personally was a witness of this. At the start of this situation a student had written the word on the table, she saw it and said ‘***** wrote the n word on the table ‘’. About 10 minutes later she became frustrated with some student and said ‘’ people should not be writing ___ on the table ‘’ She said it with no hesitation, the students in the class were furious and went and got our principal. As soon as he walked in she started crying to appear like the victim, she said ‘’ i’m so sorry mr rowe ‘’ completely invalidating the black students feelings. The principal barely said anything to her , then he pulled up an article about Kendrick Lamar stopping a white fan from saying the N-word. Students were upset and left the room. After our class (6th hour) Ms. Skelly told her 7th hour ‘’ my last class was a bit dramatic’’. Our principal is invalidating our feelings by calling this a ‘’learning moment’’, other teachers continued telling us to keep the conversation within our group. This is not the first time she has said it her actions need consequences.They are trying to silence us but we will be heard.
