A Pleasantville High School teacher was recorded using a racial slur in a classroom last week, district officials said. Board of Education President Jerome Page told NJ Advance Media on Wednesday that the unnamed educator “pretty much got out of hand when actually pronouncing the word and his motivation was trying to get the students involved with the discussion,” during a lesson.“Quiet,” the teacher said. “What I said was, ‘Is it OK if I use the word ?’” according to PressofAtlanticCity.com. Students can then be heard expressing shock and anger, the Press reported.
“There was an incident that occurred on March 10, 2022, at Pleasantville High School that was brought to our attention by several students,” Farkas said in a statement emailed to NJ Advance Media. “The district has investigated the reports and the situation was addressed. We appreciate the diversity of the district’s students, staff and community members and we will continue to ensure that every person is valued, respected and has a voice.
