District apologizes after elementary school teachers dress up as Trump border wall for Halloween
AP Friday, November 02, 2018 02:52PM
The Middleton School District Administration is investigating after learning of the costumes, which were worn during class. Photos were posted to the district's Facebook page Thursday night, though they were later removed.
Superintendent Josh Middleton said in a statement Friday morning that a parent alerted him to the issue. He apologized on behalf of the district.

I expect there were probably a lot of "border wall" costumes roaming the streets of American on Halloween.
The disconnect here being that even if done to "mock" (although am not sure of that were their intent), the immigration issue itself is in crises.

Any not-white kid knows now, without question that their teachers hate them.
ETA: Hispanic or Latino families make up about 10% of the population per the last census. (Wikipedia)

(28,270 posts)I'm sure the poor Hispanic kids in that school felt shamed by their white teachers.
Those people wounded innocent children on purpose for no reason.
The whole lot of them ought to be fired ASAP, IMO.

(15,924 posts)I would say the "teachers" should all lose their jobs, however, it appears that would be the entire school. There are 13 "people" in the pics.
From the article:
Another day, another racist costume. This is from Middletown School District in Idaho. Please call (208) 585-3027 to say
1) racism is unacceptable
2) they are creating and promoting a hostile learning environment to children
3) what is their plan to make it right?
Very good questions.
