The Issue

Ms Rodriguez needs to be given justice because she’s being blamed and fired for a situation that makes no sense. The situation is completely not her fault, what happened was it was her first year at this school, she was unsure of how this works, and students took advantage of her and began committing sexual acts in the back of her classroom. She was unaware of this, and students began spreading it around. Once she found out, she went to admin to report it, but they fired her because they said she didn’t report it in time, even though she reported it as soon as she found out. She was so many people’s comfort teacher and safe space including mine and what’s happening is beyond unfair.
