Using her ‘privilege’ to quit. Update to this previous story.
Via WTSP:
The middle school teacher who asked students to fill out a form on “how privileged they are” has resigned from the Hillsborough County school system.
Yoselis Ramos, who taught Spanish at Monroe Middle School, was on suspension.
The investigation by the school district found that she had caused a disruption, was teaching something that was not part of the district’s curriculum, and offended families by her lesson plan.
The school board called her in for a follow-up meeting Thursday and that is when she resigned.
Here is the previous story:
Parents are outraged after their children had to fill out a form — titled “How much privilege do you have?” — during a Spanish class at Monroe Middle School.
Race and sex are two common questions students fill out on forms every year. But what about gender, sexual orientation or religion? Students at Monroe Middle had to do just that.
The form was handed out in a Spanish class to seventh- and eighth-graders by teacher, Yoselis Ramos. At the top, the form asked, “How much privilege do you have?”
