The term you used was completely unacceptable. Please resign and do the right thing to be a role model to the students you are in charge of.

Racism has no place in our society - least of all our schools.

I am a Public School Taxpayer and I abhor racism. :-(

As long as the board continues to support this hatred, it cannot claim to value its students of colour.

This kind of language has no place in a multicultural and civilized society. It is absolutely shameful that it has found a way into the public discourse by way of a school official. She should be immediately released from her role as trustee as she cannot harbour this kind of hate and faithfully execute her role. The two are mutually exclusive.

this is not excusable - this is abhorrent behavior that your board needs to take immediate direct action against - silence in these times is inexcusable

Prove your zero tolerance policy and make an example of this situation.

People that use this sort of language have no place in positions of leadership.
