> Chaudry said the family didn’t get a satisfactory resolution from the school. That’s when the girl’s father took the complaint to CAIR, prompting advocates to contact MCPS.

> “Immediately within, but not even a matter of days. We learned that the school had taken constructive action and that the teacher would no longer have access to the student,” Chaudry said.

Missing step is, do parents have a route to contact central-office to escalate above principals, and do they get the same results that orgs lke CAIR do?

It actually takes a deliberate action, locally, to delete a staff member from that system. The teacher is still listed as with MCPS, though, with their central staff directory.

Well, it wasn’t hard to figure out which teacher is no longer listed on their staff directory. That would seem to suggest something did indeed happen, enough to warrant their removal there.

What investigation? The school was doing nothing! I'm sure you'd totally be ok with your child being treated the same way.

It’s good they separated the teacher from the child since either way they won’t have a productive working relationship but I wouldn’t automatically assume the teacher was Islamophobic just because CAIR says she is.

The part about bathroom access seems questionable to me — many many teachers limit bathroom access. It’s my daughter’s number 1 complaint about MS. Every day she comes home complaining about a teacher that didn’t let her or some other girl use the restroom when they asked. It’s a big problem in my opinion, but seems very widespread, not targeted. Kids are very quick to say “that teacher hates me!” when they get a result they don’t like.


LOVE, love, love how you give the school and the teacher a wide array of the benefit of the doubt and none to the Muslim 8 year old girl.


I’m giving both the benefit of the doubt. Maybe it happened, maybe it didn’t. I don’t know either person so I don’t give either one more credibility than the other.


You very much did not give both the same benefit with your previous post.

I am waiting for all the facts too. If this was clear cut then I think this story would be all over the place. I read about it a few days ago and wondered why DCUM had not picked it up.


The story is not all over the place because it involves a Muslim child

This poor child. This teacher should never be allowed to teach again.

I’m a little surprised that this hasn’t gotten more play, apart from a few places. This is a clear-cut situation here. I’m shocked (\sarcasm) that administration didn’t get, equally, in trouble for not resolving this before it had to be escalated.

As always, escalating problems to school-based leadership got this poor family nowhere. They had to go outside of MCPS to force MCPS to do the right thing.

It would be nice to know who this teacher is, and why he hasn’t been terminated. There is literally no excuse for this kind of behavior, at all.
