Lehi teacher no longer employed after controversial political speech to class

Alpine School District announced a chemistry teacher at Lehi High School is no longer employed at the school Wednesday after a student's recording of her sharing political opinions in class circulated on social media.

The teacher begins by voicing her exhaustion with the pandemic and concern over coronavirus variants, saying she'd be proud if a student chose to get vaccinated. She then goes on to say she hates former President Donald Trump, adding that he "sucks," and urges her students not to watch Fox News.

Utah County is one of the most conservative areas in the state.

In a statement that drew ire from people on social media, the teacher tells her students they don't need to believe what their parents believe because "most of ya'll parents are dumber than you."

She later warns students in the video not to ask her about politics and says she "can go off on it" the whole class period, but that she's not going to. She then adds that if students don't believe in climate change, they should "get the hell out."

When one student is heard giving a muffled response, she says: "That's pathetic that you think that. You're the problem with the world," prompting laughter from class members.

Systemic in our public schools everywhere today.

My kids tell me they got out just in time as all the older teachers retired in their last year.

None of the schools they went to are still standing. Then they demolished them and rebuilt them to look and feel like prisons.

Is there ANYTHING that teenagers and their Lefty mentors don’t know?

I saw her photo, but her name is never mentioned.
She’s around these kids every week. She should know how clever they are at filming something exciting to them.
Eight months into her hero Biden’s presidency, and she’s still brandishing her proud hatred of Donald Trump.
Then, to say if they don’t believe in Climate Change, then ‘get the Hell out of her class!’ was another dumb move.

Yeah, I saw a couple of photos of her, too. She’s a fat, slovenly, fugly creature. Won’t assume her orientation but suspect only a desperate drunk would hop in the sack with her.

Just look at the way she dressed. Back in HS all the good teachers wore business casual style outfits. Some always wore a suit and tie, some wore nice darker jeans, etc, but noting ever that sloppy.

It reflects the garbage coming out of out colleges and universities.

If you talks to some of the leftists I know, Orange Man still lives rent free in their head 24/7/365.

Her name was probably left out because the school district very likely has already placed her in another school different distract. They dont want her suing her former school for letting the cat out of the bag.

Based on the things the students were saying and her reaction, it sounds like the kids are smarter and follow factual news on current events more then she does.

True.

I was referring to teenagers in general, and Lefty mentors in particular.

As you say, this group of teenagers appear to be smarter than your average bear.

She said the same thing about 'homophobic' students (in the video).

I don’t remember any type of beverage allowed in class either (students nor teachers).

Inappropriate for high school, but that’s all they’ll hear in college.

I suspect that recording lefty teachers and releasing it on social media is going to be a popular activity with
this generation.

“Utah County is one of the most conservative areas in the state.”

FAKE NEWS. I’ve been told here, TIME AND TIME AGAIN, that conservative areas of the country would NEVER hire bitches like this lady to ‘teach’ their children, because the parents have control over their schools. And I have to believe that’s true, or there is simply NO WAY the people living there would ever send their kids to those schools.

So, sorry, I don’t buy it...Fake News. The media needs to do better.

There are 3,385,000 teachers in our schools.

Many are leftists.

So now let’s get rid of the other leftist plants who want to brainwash our children. Encourage students to film leftist behaviors and post it. Egg the leftists on. Lose their jobs.

After the amount of teacher misconduct exposed by remote learning, each classroom should be equipped with cameras and monitored. This teacher is obviously mentally ill and abusing the kids.

It’s good when a lefty gets fired for her thoughts. They’ve been doing it to us for years. Time they felt what it’s like.
