“This was and is highly offensive to our staff and students and does not align with our values as a district,” the letter says. “Our district’s response to the incident is ongoing. We recognize there is much work to do and it has only begun,” Fine said.that parents confronted school board members and officials during a meeting Wednesday, demanding that the teacher responsible for supervising announcements be fired. Fine would not comment on the students involved, WCMH reports.
