FrozenKookie 2,638 Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 A Texas teacher gave her 13-year-old student a "most likely to become a terrorist" award as part of mock award ceremony at a Houston high school. Lizeth Villanueva, a seventh-grader at Anthony Aguirre Junior High School, told KPRC that the teacher gave her the award during Tuesday's AVID class — an advanced learning program designed to prepare students for college and workplace success. The school district has now apologized for the mock award ceremony, which also included"most likely to become homeless" and "most likely to cry for every little thing" certificates. In a statement provided to BuzzFeed News, the Channelview ISD administration said it "would like to apologize for the insensitive and offensive fake mock awards that were given to students in a classroom." The teachers responsible for the mock award ceremony "have been disciplined according to district policy," the statement said. Villanueva said that the teacher warned the students while giving out the awards that it "might hurt their feelings" but that it was meant to be "funny."

display name 4,360 Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 What the hell made her think calling a student a potentitial terrorist was a good idea? Too messy, even as a joke. I know that even middle schoolers might make such jokes amongst themselves, but wrong move for a teacher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
