Happy New Year, So I know you have heard the story of the Assistant Principle that assaulted the teenager and now has presses charges on the child as a professional tis should not have happened, he was also removed from any school the word is and for the same behaviors, this is unacceptable and the NAACP hasn't taken any concerns or action as to why this isn't being addressed instead the Superintendent of the schools has made a statement and justifies the behavior of the adult, as one student did remove herself from the bus he shouldn't allowed his angry for the African American !5 year old teenager to elevate and show itself in front of other student either the Principle not intervening at all and standing by and watching the whole situation to elevate is also unacceptable and this needs to be addressed. The child has some Mental Health issues that the family has been attempting to get assistance for and the State of Ala has not assisted at all, instead they have made excuses why they aren't going to be able to assist, now what do you thing this will do to the child's mental health more and not receiving assisting from a team of Professional mentally and Professionally as the Super indent stated his staff deals with this behavior daily so do those dealing with Mental Health and not they have taken this teenager to more trauma that needs to be addressed and the Assistant and Principle needs to be charged with neglected on a student because of RACE and not Professional Status. So what is the State of Ala message and the NAACP message saying African American Students can be assaulted by school officials and it's alright!!!!, This should be in more of the NEWS since they have not be addressed from the truth and elevating that and other students mental Health which in American at this time is too High not to make people's actions that set off people dealing with mental health stability, He should be elevated as well the both of them. Is this a way that Professional care for Students that need help and they appear to be in the same way and using their authority to BULLY the Students that already are suppose to trust them. This is a profession the person chose and if they themselves are wrong they should be held to that as children are humans too. Shirley (862-262-5492)Overwhelmed Grandmother of Teenager
