An assistant principal has been placed on leave after students attempted to walk out of school.
When the bell rang for fourth period on Friday, and then again on Monday, students at Jones Valley Middle School were ready to walk out of the school., that they felt weren’t being addressed by new leadership. They said they wanted the newly hired principal, Misha Randle, to resign. But both days, teachers stopped them before they could exit the doors, halting the walkout, said eighth grader Victorya Sager.
Sager said discipline issues have gotten worse with new leadership, who she said have ignored concerns from her and others about bullying and violent behavior. Sager said she’s complained about bullying and threatening behavior from some of her peers, but officials didn’t take them seriously. She also said she’s warned staff about potential fights, but no one took steps to prevent altercations from happening.
“The goal of our educators each day is to provide structured teaching and learning in an orderly fashion in every school. Disruptions to the order of school operations are discouraged,” Stewart told AL.com.
