6:47 am
current assistant >> i'd like to ask you not to refer to district employees by name. >> okay once again i have no idea so i apologize. so our assistant principle is very rude, arrest grant, menu and disrespectful. i have different e-mails here the most kernt is half the students got c, d and f were graded by their intermit teacher. i approached her but she was rude she said she had nothing to say. a lot of the parents can say that she was rude to my daughter and been an 4.0 student and for
6:48 am
had your not to listen to me is awful. the assistant principle is not listening on april 24th she was typing not looking 83 at me saying i have nothing to say. i e-mailed the assistant principle and have all the copies of the e-mails here and they didn't apologize nothing, zero. what else, you know, she's rude to the teachers too. i'm sure i, say her name she was rude to my daughter. i think they owe it to the
6:49 am
teacher. and the thing i'm surprised is last year because i was so mad i have to call the office of voice and checked my rights to complain against the principle i was so shocked that the folks had a petition against her same thing rude, disrespect full. and another one from car michael who had a weapon incident at betsy car michael campus this december she was rude and literally hang up on the woman and called the cops and filed a
6:50 am
police report. and the police officer got the same treatment she was so rude so my concern is if she does this with the parents how does she treat the parents. i want her out from our school. sorry i'm shaking i'm so mad. if i literally have to take time off from school and have all the parents sign this i will do that. i will hope - i'm sure you guys have kids. it's really disrespect full she's so rude. i feel sorry for the students. my daughter is graduating this year i have nothing to lose. and i wanted to go to betsy carr
6:51 am
michael it's a great school i owe it to that school i owe it to that school. if she's our assistant principle is my son safety in that school knowing she doesn't care. please take a long time my report it's here please take a look >> just following up on it same topics topic on the same topic regarding the assistant principle for several weeks my stepdaughter was telling the randomly pe teachers they were going to be getting terrible
6:52 am
grades for the quarter and i asked her. excuse me. she got her report card and got a d she's a straight a student. i went to the school the next day the assistant principle wasn't there so the pe teacher was and i asked him what's the methodology. he said there's no misdemean methodological he said that's what i felt. he said i am a substitute. i said how side that work exactly. i asked to speak to the assistant principle she wasn't there are another staffer told me to come back the next day.
6:53 am
she was there i said i'd like to speako you about the grades she said there's nothing to talk about you need to leave. i said wait you said amber we can work on this grade she kicked her out and said i was hostile and i had to leave. realistically that's not conducive to the kids it certainly doesn't teach them how to communicate with each other and the staff is not good. amber is going to be okay. but for the rest of the kids it's not going to work >> (clapping) >> so i've been a student at
6:54 am
the betsy carr michael since preschool. so throughout the years i've really liked it but this year's not a good one. she was turned our school into a mess she's rude to the teachers and the students. she pulls out teachers and yells at them she yells at us and everybody. so nobody feels save at school anymore we want her to leave. even though i'm graduating i'm okay but what about the other students. things need to change.
6:55 am
>> could you state your name please. megan. >> i'm here to represent the teacher which means she left and i blame is on the assistant principle and she yells at my teacher and it's hard to hear. so, so sing sf c is a filipino education program it doesn't make sense to fire the only filipino education teacher. that's basically, it. and i guess i don't like the new principle teacher she's rude to the teachers and students and i
6:56 am
don't feel safe going to school and that's it. >> hi in the eight grade i'm here to complain about our assistant principle. she won't be even listen to my side of the story and when my dad came to complain afterwards she yelled at me and said it was rude for him to come up to her i don't like her.

very generously give him in seventh and eight grade. ms. ma dell invites them to come before and after school and that's an evaluation of dedication. she went above and beyond for my son and she does for all her students. she's helped organ numerous parents meetings where we had a successful car wash and -- okay. and i hope you relook at ms. ma dell and reevaluate her as the valuable teacher she is.
