The 17-year-old pupil was staging a sit-down protest during the national anthem when the Senn High School teacher allegedly made the remark.
A 15-year-old girl was also arrested at the protest on suspicion of battery after allegedly pushing a school administrator to the ground.
In a letter to students sent prior to the sit-in, Senn High School Principal Mary Beck said she was"concerned about a narrative that I have heard from several students, and I wanted to reach out to all of you to ensure there is clarity around this situation and who we are as a school." It is unclear if the teacher will face any disciplinary action. Beck and CPS have been contacted for further comment.
In a tweet, the ACLU of Illinois said:"Forced patriotism is not just bad policy—it is unconstitutional. CPS should investigate completely the allegations—including the targeting of students of color—and make clear this is not tolerated." Students at Senn High School in Chicago staged a mass sit-in after a teacher allegedly told a hispanic girl to “go back” to her country.
