SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) – The Sioux Falls School District quickly fired an employee Monday who wrote a controversial Facebook post about the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump.
In a statement to KELOLAND News, the SFSD said officials became aware of a social media post by a “district staff member” and “the District’s Code of Conduct Policy (GBEB) clearly outlines the high standards to which we hold all staff members.”
“The staff member’s statement does not align with the School District’s values and was not condoned in any way. The individual is no longer employed by the Sioux Falls School District,” the statement by the school district said. “We remain committed to fostering a safe, respectful learning environment for all students and staff and upholding the values of our community.”
You can find the SFSD’s Code of Conduct Policy here.
The post that received plenty of attention in South Dakota and across the country was made by someone that went by Cassie Martin on Facebook. On Saturday, after the shooting at Trump’s rally, she posted: “Shoot — if only he would’ve had his scope sighted correctly.”
She later took that post down and apologized, posting to her Facebook saying, “It wasn’t meant to be offensive so I am sorry if you were hurt by my words. The post was taken down moments after it was originally posted because it wasn’t posted in good taste. It isn’t a great example of who I am and what I truly believe as a person.”
Her Facebook page is now deleted as well.
According to a staff directory on the SFSD website, her name is listed as Cassandra Oleson, and she is listed as a Special Behavior Facilitator at Ben Reifel Middle School.
After the posts surfaced, the school district received pushback. Their latest Facebook post, which was posted on July 10th, had 450 comments as of this afternoon. All of them were about Oleson.
KELOLAND News has attempted to contact the former Sioux Falls School District employee for comment.
If your job title includes the word “facilitator” you have a non-job.
+1 teachers are spoon fed leftist propaganda from their unions almost daily to keep them in the dark about reality and retain their vote for Dems.
Teachers are not independent thinkers as a whole, and clearly are not doing their students any service.
Bump
She's sorry they felt that way: a non-apology.
Interesting that she was a "behavior faciliator", whatever that is, when she doesn't know how to behave.
Intellect and acquisition of knowledge is not wisdom. And it is not love.
Both of the shooter's parents were behavioral therapists. The shooter probably grew up with the unspoken impression that he was never good enough.
If you get the chance to peruse Libs of TikTok’s Twitter feed, it’s a “who’s who” of dirtbags that have wished harm on President Trump. She also follows up with any firings that result from their comments. I see Cassie Martin’s death wish comment in Libs’s feed. Don’t know if Chaya instigated it or not, but she sure has the followers that will pound the employers senseless.
Indeed.
💯💯💯…some decent people in the rat party no doubt…but when you stand back and let anarchists take the party, you are complicit…
She latched on to some tour boat owner/captain in Saginaw MI that made a death wish comment. Before you know it...the guy has lost multiples of tour reservations, got booted out of the Chamber, lost his job as a local real estate broker, tarred and feathered on every customer review site. Said his phone was hacked. LOL.
“It wasn’t meant to be offensive, so I’m sorry if you were hurt by my words.”
The stupidest kind of apology. I’m sorry you got yourself hurt by the thing I said
BULL$#!+
“WASN’T MEANT TO BE OFFENSIVE” ?????
WHAT IS SHE 9 YEARS OLD????
That was "controversial"?
Liberals are mental children.................
“It wasn’t meant to be offensive
[it was supposed to be encouraging - an enjoyable thought. I sure enjoyed it]
so I am sorry if you were hurt by my words
[sorry you misunderstand my delight; surprised you don't see things my way].
The post was taken down moments after it was originally posted
[I'm a lemming Dem, after all, and I go with the flow, I obey my masters]
because it wasn’t posted in good taste
[well, I thought it was a delectable morsel of dark humor, but anyway it makes me smile now to think my post taste bad to MAGA types].
It isn’t a great example of who I am and what I truly believe as a person.
[But it's not that bad an example either. Deep down though, I'm much more clever than this. This example doesn't do my hate and narcissism justice]”
