Eff that. Pay them $0 and counter-sue for out-of-state tuition.

APS almost never looks like it’s in the right when there are complaints, but this is a notable exception. This is more than a nuisance lawsuit / claim. It’s a highly visible claim of racism with an enormous demand for relief. If they don’t believe they are in the wrong, they need to defend against it to protect the integrity of the school and the reputation of the teacher.

That’s the most likely scenario. I could see both parties agreeing to half of the requested amount.


HELL NO! This isn’t even filed in court at this point. It’s just a demand for payment and I’m confident the school system would prevail if it ended up in litigation. APS absolutely should not capitulate. There is no legal basis for damages on these facts, NONE!

I’m appalled at the white supremacist views of the posters claiming to be Arlington County citizens.

This incident was unacceptable.

Why isn't any of this in the news? Why haven't the Arlington mommies telling us "the truth" about this woman going to the press? Surely N Arlington moms have press connections?? Why hasn't this been posted on MONA "Hey, I have a story I need to break, does anyone have a connection at the Post or even ARLNow that I can contact?"

Don't hold your breath.
My money is on it not happening.


They can't stonewall the question. All Fraud needs to be investigated. She lives in Maryland. Her car is registered in MD, her voter registration is in MD.

She's gonna get it. A handful of us on our bock wrote Miyares. Lets see what that does. He's not going to take a hit for this clown.


How do you know she lives in MD, car registered there and voter registration there?

and even if she does maybe the father is an Arlington resident?


JFC. Read the thread moron.

It’s a reach to assume the woman isn’t a resident and even if she isn’t, that doesn’t make it okay for Arlington County Public Schools to sanction a hate crime that has had a negative impact on her kids life.


A hate crime?!? Wow!
A foreign, likely African teacher picked a student for a silly game sanctioned by the leadership team along with other students in which they had to put their noses on a make-up-sized cotton ball.

You cannot possibly be serious.


So if she was foreign or even African, how is that relevant?


She was foreign, Haitian, I believe. So, also a descendant of slaves. The game was not racist, cotton balls are not racist, what she did was not racist, the end. She was incredulous because of her OWN BACKGROUND. And she got fired for it. And this scamming family is still here and suing because that’s all that this was ever about: an opportunity for an even bigger grift.


The real racism was the student taking advantage of a black teacher

It would be social and career suicide, even if they are correct
