I am a student in Aldie, VA, USA who has been unsettled by Senora Myers. She consistently yells at students, refuses to call us by our actual names and blames others for her mistakes. This is not just my story but the experience of many students under her tutelage.

Senora Myers' conduct is not only unprofessional but also detrimental to the learning environment. According to a study by the American Psychological Association, such negative behaviors from teachers can lead to lower student self-esteem and academic performance (APA). Furthermore, it's against Virginia's Department of Education guidelines which mandate respect and dignity towards all students (VDOE).

We are calling on our school administration to take immediate action against Senora Myers' behavior. It's time we ensure that our classrooms are safe spaces where every student feels respected and heard. We urge you to sign this petition demanding her termination for creating an unhealthy learning environment.
