Proper punishment
This adminstrator should not be fired. She should be arrested and charged with child neglect and child endangerment and go to jail. Firing her alone isn't good enough. Every person of African descent that has a child at P.S. 34 should in a mass exodus boycott this school and demand that she be arrested before they return. Some would say the children would be hurt by missing school. Well what kind of education is a child getting when a school can single out his or her specific group whether they broke any rules or not and tell them "If you act like animals, I'll treat you like animals." For these children the age of innocence is over. They have felt the first taste of racism. I remember when I was a child, my school was all black and a vast majority of my teacher were as well. The principle was white but the vice principle was black. The district superintendent was black was well. Is this happening any more? Do we have fair representation? Are there the same number of black teachers as white teachers? Just some questions.
