Furious parents are calling for a Pennsylvania middle school teacher to be fired after she was photographed taping a mask to a student's face.
On Monday, a Facebook group called 'North Penn Stronger Together' shared a picture of a teacher at Pennfield Middle School in Hatfield taping a mask onto male student's face. The student's age or grade are not known.
'Pro-mask or anti-mask, I hope we can all agree that taping masks to children's faces crosses the LINE. This was not a joke for the child or the parents,' the post said. Pennfield, which covers grades seven through nine for kids aged 12 to 15, requires students, teachers and visitors to wear masks.
One person commented that the teacher placed masking tape on the child's face without asking for consent, leaving him 'mortified' and resulted in him being made fun of for the rest of the day.
Outraged parents in the comment section demanded North Penn School District to respond, even calling on the district to fire the teacher in the photo. The teacher has not been publicly identified.

What’s the teacher’s name?
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

I saw her picture in article.
If it’s not “Karen” I’ll lose $5.
BTTT for homeschooling.
Teacher figured if she pushed a plastic straw into his nose to allow him to breathe and taped his mouth, nose and eyes it wouldn’t be prosecuted. She’s not going to let some little kids cause her and her union sisters to catch Covid.
I’m looking at the three schools in that district and there are no pictures in their staff lists. I’ll post when I find it.
Been happening at many schools all over the country.
FIRED? How about filling charges of child abuse!! FIGHT THIS in the courts!! Man if that was my kid ALL HELL would break!
AND FILE a law suit!!
They use to tar and feather idiots like this and ride them out of town on a rail back in the good old days.
Super glue a mask to the teacher’s face.
If that were my kid the teacher would already be taking her meals through a straw.

Great idea.
Time for conservatives to “dox” these nuts and give them a taste of their own medicine.
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
They sow a mask on to the teacher’s face. Or maybe superglue it.
