Someone Should Talk To This Principal

My school used to do this

Fuck them

Our school used to ask children who were late questions about maths, but those that they can’t answer yet. And then they made kids write down that they don’t know math. My 11yo classmate (who was always great at math) was crying after this.

Oh god, my elementary school was hell.

I remember this one music teacher who, for some reason, REALLY fucking hated autistic kids. I would know, because everyone in my weird therapy group was targeted while everyone else was ignored.

I saw her physically drag a kid out and threaten to get him suspended because he was to scared to dance solo in front of his peers. 

There was also “lunch detention,” and they didn’t fuck around with that. They didn’t isolate the students like that, they fucking shoved them in a separate room and forbade them from sitting together or talking. They slowly brought in several teachers and eventually the principal, and they all, one by one, told us that we were horrible, reprehensible people who would never be successful. 

And you wanna know HOW you got lunch detention? Not finishing your work on time, even if it was a one-time thing. 

State sanctioned child abuse

‘Child abuse’ 

Y’all are insane. 

It may not be child abuse but honestly, some of this shit is fucking insane and harmful to the students than it is helpful. 

I mean.

It is abuse.

Emotional Abuse is a thing

I’ve seen or been the target of every thing listed on that image from teachers. Some teachers hit every act on that image. Many of these things were codified into how the school punished all students, like in the examples above.

Education is an hierarchial disciplinary system. Abuse comes at no suprise. And since this system reproduces the hierarchy of society, poor kids, disabled kids, ‘weird’ kids, kids of color etc are the main targets.
