(DCNF)—A Montgomery County, Pa., elementary school principal is on administrative leave Friday after admitting he used antisemitic language, Philadelphia-area media outlets reported.
After leaving a voicemail for a parent, Principal Phillip Leddy of Lower Gwynedd Elementary School allegedly went on the antisemitic rant while using profanity after he thought the phone had been hung up, Fox 29 reported. During his diatribe to another staff member, Leddy allegedly used the phrase “Jew camp,” claimed that the parent in question was probably an attorney and had “Jew money” while also repeating an antisemitic conspiracy theory about Jews and banks, according to a statement by the Jewish Federation of Greater Philadelphia.
“The presence of others in the room, the lack of challenge or interruption, and the comfort with which these remarks were spoken raise serious questions about culture, accountability, and oversight within the school environment,” the Jewish Federation said in the release. “We understand the district is also investigating the involvement of others whose voices are audible on the recording, which is a necessary and appropriate step.”
Leddy reported himself for making the comments and has been recommended for termination, according to WVPI TV. A hearing is scheduled for Monday.
According to an archived version of his biography on the Lower Gwynedd Elementary School website, Leddy became principal in September 2023 after serving several years as Committee Chair of the district’s Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee and as a principal for fifth and sixth-grade students at another elementary school. His biography was removed from the school’s site as of Friday night.
His credentials also noted that he is a “DEI-Expert,” claiming, “He served as Committee Chair of the district’s Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee, and prides himself on developing, supporting an maintaining a positive school culture that emphasizes belongingness and collaboration.”
According to the bio, Leddy received his bachelor’s degree from Bloomsburg University and his master’s degree from Cabrini College.
“I do not believe the actions and words of this principal reflect the views of our staff entirely,” Wissahickon School District Superintendent Dr. Mwenyewe Dawan told CBS Philadelphia. “One person’s hateful actions should not negatively impact the way our community views the rest of our staff.”
The Wissahickon School District did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Daily Caller News Foundation.
The democRATS and DemoKKKrats are The Party of Hate. Some are openly demonstrating it.
A ten on the Gaydar scale.
Liberals are openly racist.

Teachers unions .. donations grew from $4.3 million to more than $32 million — an all-time high. Even more than most labor unions, they have little use for Republicans, giving Democrats at least 94 percent of the funds they contributed to candidates and parties since as far back as 1990, where our data begins.
IF he loses his job he’ll be back on his knees in no time.
What was the phone call about?
Just look at Joey Xiden.
Money?..............
And they have the nerve to call MAGA racist?! Give me a break.
Recommendation accepted
Apparently the children of the Principal and the children of the parent he called go to the same summer camp. Which he weirdly called "Jew Camp" but since his kids go there...? Makes no sense to me.
The Principal apparently holds some sort of grudge against the family.
“...prides himself on developing, supporting an maintaining a positive school culture that emphasizes belongingness and collaboration.”
EVERY school administrator and teacher uses the exact same script. But they sure do LIE.
Exactly what I thought.
It probably is a script that the NEA gives every new school administration hire. They get a booklet with slogans, phrases and catchy sayings they can use in any situation.
Shoulda had a chapter on how to operate a telephone safely. ;D
He dug his own hole with those remarks. I’m a little surprised that someone in his ethnic and presumed age group (White, 45 or younger) would hold these attitudes.
Where would such old fashioned stereotypes and influences come from with the Generation X crowd?
If he were a Black 45 y/o, I would resume he was a devote
of the infamous Reverend Louis Farrakhan.
They still cultivate those negative old attitudes, eager to blame others for their own failures or limited successes.
Gif....
Best feature is that woman’s eyes moving back and forth.
Those DEI heads sure attract the most hatefilled racist creeps.
