Teacher placed on leave after her Facebook post urges reporting illegal residents

Source: Sacramento Bee



Prosser school officials placed a teacher on administrative leave Friday for using Facebook to urge people to call immigration agents to report suspected illegal residents.

Cheriese Rhode, a first-grade teacher in Prosser, reportedly posted a message Wednesday night on her personal Facebook page urging people to call Immigration and Customs Enforcement in connection with the A Day Without Immigrants Boycott.

People closed businesses around the nation Thursday and kept children home from school to demonstrate how crucial immigrants are to the U.S. economy.

The message generated a flurry of phone calls and emails to the Prosser School District, where nearly 62 percent of the students are Hispanic.

Rhode is in her second year of teaching in the Prosser district. According to her Facebook page, she graduated from Columbia Basin College and Heritage University with degrees in elementary education and an endorsement to teach English as a second language.

I would be so sad (and pretty angry) if I knew his teacher was so unloving and uncaring.
I hope the school district gets her away from children since she has so much hate in her heart.

I am a retired educator and I hope they fire her hateful ass. Can you image how she must treat her children in the classroom?
