Fire the homophobic teachers at Dumont High School (NJ)

The Issue

During a class session over Zoom on Wednesday morning, November 25th, a student took a screenshot of their teacher’s monitor, specifically of an open group chat with other DHS teachers. These messages contained homophobic remarks about another school employee. One text reads, “Is that her adopted kid? Who is gonna be all fucked up growing up watching 2 chicks kissing and calling them both mom...” This behavior is unacceptable and should not be tolerated by the school district or its employees, and should result in their forced resignations immediately.
