LAFAYETTE, Colo. – An elementary school principal says she was fired for protecting children from humiliation.
Noelle Roni says she fought against a policy requiring kids to get their hands stamped if they don’t have enough money in their lunch account. She was fired from Peak to Peak Charter School in Lafayette in the fall.
“The kids are humiliated. They’re branded. It’s disrespectful. Where’s the human compassion? And these are little children,” she said.
Roni was principal for nine years before being fired. She calls it a wrongful termination, and wants her job back.
Why in the living fuck is this not signal boosted the shit out of?
This is what a hero looks like…her name’s Noelle Roni.
Shout, shout, shout. This woman took a stand against shaming poor children, against disrespecting poor people.
They’re making an example of this woman for saying enough is enough….against a freakin’ charter school principal. You know, charter schools, which were supposed to bring access to poor and minority students to better educations and have turned out to be highly variable, and this woman said enough.
Noelle Roni. Remember her name, because she stood up. It’s time for us to return the favor.
