With tears flowing from her eyes, a parent hear words from her child she never wanted to hear, “Mommy, I didn’t think my teacher hated me!” A third-grade Indianapolis student spoke those words to her mother after overhearing her Pike Township teacher talking negatively about her on Zoom.
An Indianapolis mother is dealing with the trauma she and her daughter faced during a virtual class session. On Monday, September 28, classes in Pike Township were held virtually due to a bus driver shortage. On that day, Evita Ealey and her daughter were getting ready to join a Zoom meeting with her daughter’s third-grade classroom when her third-grade teacher began belittling her daughter along with another teacher in the building. The entire conversation happened over Zoom with herself and other parents and students on the Zoom call. The teachers did not seem to be aware they could be heard.
In the conversation overheard by Ealey and her daughter, the teacher allegedly stated how she did not want her daughter in her class anymore. She talked about how she begged other third-grade teachers in the building to take the third-grader from her classroom. The teacher said how it was not her fault that the child was not able to keep up with the rest of the class.
The teacher expressed frustration with the mother for how she approached her regarding the lack of communication from the teacher. In addition to reaching out to Pike Township, Ealey also shared her frustrations on Facebook.
Prior to this incident, Ealey had nothing but good things to say about the MSD of Pike Township. Ealey and her daughter moved to Indiana from Michigan and felt believed they had moved into a decent school district. The incident has now left Ealey questioning her initial opinion about the district since she does not believe the teachers involved where appropiately held accoutable for their actions.
After the incident Ealey reached out to her daughter’s principal expressing she did not want her daughter to continue to attend the school if the teachers involved in the incident were going to able to keep their jobs.
Next, Ealey reached out to Christine M. Brenner, MSD of Pike Township Director of Elementary Education, to express gratitude that her daughter was being transfered to another elementary school in the district and was no longer being taught by the teacher but to also inquire about how the district would deal with the teachers involved in the incident. Brenner replied with the following:
Ealey is hoping by sharing her story and what happened to her daughter, more community members will ask and demand answers from the MSD of Pike Township. Ealey believes, “no teacher feeling this way should be teaching children.” She wants answers on how the district will prevent this from happening to other students.
The story is still developing.
I feel that this was very disgusting of a TEACHER who was supposed to teach and uplift students conducted herself in such manner along with the other teacher as well!! I feel suspension or some kind of action should occur because what message are you giving the teachers at fault if you don’t?! What, that’s it’s ok to be rude and nasty about your students in a public area or yet even have those thoughts of a CHILD! If nothing is done it lets those involved know that it’s ok for that behavior and it’s NOT!! If it were my child I would take issues much farther!
Yha
Has anyone one heard from the teacher? Because quite frankly the kid could be an issue…. My child was a terror in 3rd grade and i had to learn that the hard and embarrassing way. So maybe there is a good reason the teacher didn’t want the child in her class.
Carrie shut up bitch that still don’t give the teacher the right to say that type of shit
When you choose your profession as a career You prepare for any and everything , Whether the child was slower to learn or misbehaved , t he teacher job is to find away to get through .( a better lesson plan) as an educator These are our kids ( for 8 hrs) I trust you with my child . to help mold and teach ( it takes a village) . This type of behavior is unacceptable and both teachers should be held accountable. As well as the upper management should put in place more training and help when it comes to these matters. Good luck young lady and continue to fight for the sake of your daughter rights and all others that may have went unhandled
Why just why SCHOOLS WILL HIRE ANYBODY AND ITS SCARY
Carrie you sound lame as fuck .. nobody cares how your child acted this pertains to another individual and there’s no way she should of heard what was said about her at all. If she did have a problem it’s up to the teachers to help her lbvs not down talk her at all .. I feel they both should loose their job
There are many challenges with children in todays atmosphere. Autisim or being on the spectrum is high. Teachers have an incredible responsibility. With that being said teachers are always going to teacher training. Child issues did not just start. Children with extra needs should be placed with a teacher that has training to deal. Conversation about children should never be held virtually. And parents should be involved early on. There needs to be a hand and glove between parents and teachers.
Carrie CLEARLY if you read what the mother posted she stated there were issues with communication and she WAS TRYING to find out why her daughter was being sent home with behavior issue reports. PLS READ BEFORE YOU SPEAK
This is the shit that get teachers beat tf up I’m not going to anybody but u about mine so if u woman enough to talk shit about my daughter be woman enough to catch these hands as well. People DNT play about they kids if u DNT wanna be a teacher mc Donald’s is always hiring
This is very hurtful and unsettling .. as myself who loves children and can’t wait to become a teacher especially with kids who do have behavior issues (those the ones you keep close to you because they need you a little bit more then the rest). I feel the teach should have some type of suspension or consequence because let’s just say the roles where reversed !!! For a teacher to even think this way is disgusting
My children went thru that crap factory of a school system. When my oldest daughter was a Senior the teachers and the administrators lied to her in 2002 and because she was expecting a child told her she couldn’t March with her class.
Carrie getting dragged for her poor ideology has truly made my day 🙂 . #LoveToSeeIT
That’s beyond sad sorry she had to deal with that
No teacher should talk about a child they are there to teach them . Not down them. She should be fired.
Carrie you stupid bitch . Stfu ! U sound dumb ash .
This teacher should really be ashamed. She definitely is not operating in her higher self. Perhaps she needs a break from her current profession and go clean toilets somewhere because she is not worthy to be around children.
The both of them should be fired immediately you ask me they’re racist no grown person/ teacher especially should speak this way about a student teachers are supposed to be like your second mom they suppose to help you succeed and reach every goal you possibly can this is certainly unacceptable and to the little girl you are beautiful you are important
This is mortifying! I cannot imagine what that poor young child is feeling. I’m appalled that she didn’t check and see if the LIVE was active. That was her 1st mistake. Talking about a student to another teacher who cannot help with the situation. 2nd mistake. If she had issues with how the child learns, she should have been communicating with with mother and discussing an IEP, Behavioral plan, paraproffessional help with the board of EDUCATION/principal is the route she should have went. 3rd mistake. At this point she has failed as a teacher and deserves the proper consequences for her lack of professionalism.
As for you Ms. CARRIESAYS: Thinking before you speak is always the correct way to go. You cannot judge a book by its cover nor can you put any child in any other child’s situation. All children are different and not ONE, I mean not a single one of them are the same.. YOU SHOULD IMMEDIATELY REMOVE YOUR COMMENT and an apology is in ORDER.
To the Mother & the Daughert: I hope all is well and the justice you deserve comes about.
There are 2 reasons why the teacher’s weren’t fired.
#1 The student is a black child in a predominantly white school district.
#2 Teachers are reluctant to return to work due to Covid so the school is probably short staffed already.
They don’t give a damn about this black child. It’s sad 😔
Fuck you Carrie I will fuck you up you simple minded stupid ass bitch no one cares about your child an did you not read what she said you fucking Cum Rag
I believe both teacher should be fired. Teachers are trained and it’s their job to teach the children and some need extra help than others but, it’s her job to help the kids. She shouldn’t be allowed to teacher any other student because it couldn’t be that bad where she wants to trade one child for six other students. It sounds like she’s the one with the problem.
My heart goes out to Evita and her daughter. Whether her child was or was not exhibiting disruptive behavior is aside from the fact that the teacher commented on a public platform with someone else who does not directly teach the child for everyone else to hear. You have got to be a special kind of evil to do behave in such manner!!!
Sadly, Pike township is not alone in hiring individuals that should not be anywhere near children, and it will only get worse.
The educational system is broken (that’s saying it nicely). There may be fantastic teachers but many are burned out, operate with little to no support (financial resources), large classroom size, inadequate training, and if we take into account that many of our kids are struggling with some developmental issue and are not diagnosed or the school does not provide support with aides and special education teachers ( which I can surely assume this teacher clearly does not). It translates to a teaching disaster in which children are the victims.
No child should ever feel that their teacher hates them and no parent should ever have to agonize and wonder if their child is being mistreated, ignored, or bullied by the person who has been entrusted in educating their child. PERIOD!
All that, that was said about Carrie is true its not her child. To the Mom get you a LAWYER and get the both Teachers FIRED. This not the first time they have done this. And they will continue too if they are not stop. They took the job to teach and teaching is to help the students not to belittle them to anybody and I mean anybody.
This is horrible. Kids will rise to the expectations teachers set. They are meant to help that child get there and work with parents to do that. This mades me sad and scared for my own child. I hope justice is served in some way here! That child deserves better.
Evita I take my hat off to you cuz I’d prolly be in jail after taking justice into my own hands. Get your lawyer and do it the right way don’t let them get away with it because trust me she’s not the first and won’t be the last. As for you Carrie your one simple minded cold hearted bitch. That baby girl should never have to experience nothing like that no matter what she has done. Some children can’t help it. You don’t know if she has a learning disability that hasn’t been picked up on test or what. But yet you really fixed your mouth to say she could of had a good reason. Nothing can ever be a good reason when a child is struggling to catch on and struggling with learning
My heart goes out to and your child im so sorry you guys are dealing with this gid bless you both
This is very disgusting for a teacher to say the least. If the teacher felt the child’s needs surpassed what she could give, how about take with your boss about getting the child with a teacher that is more trained and patient then apparently she is. The fact that the district doesn’t see this is as an issue, enough to fire these two teachers is also an issue. The child is who they should be protecting as well as other children to come along. We can almost be certain this is not the first time the teacher talked about a student this way, just the first time she was caught. The mother should sue the school district for pain and suffering related to this incident, for her daughter and herself and maybe then the district would understand the seriousness of the situation. Praying for the child and her mom. This is heartbreaking!!!!
