In a surprising turn of events, a teacher from Dunnville Secondary School in Ontario, Canada, has found herself under scrutiny for some highly inappropriate comments made to students. It’s often a challenge to manage a classroom full of teenagers, and while it’s understandable for educators to face moments of frustration, consistent unprofessional behavior can lead to serious consequences.
Jennifer Green-Johnson has reportedly been suspended for a month without pay as she awaits a hearing on September 23 regarding multiple allegations of misconduct. Among the eyebrow-raising incidents, she allegedly told one student, “lick me where I fart” (not exactly the most respectful choice of words!), and labeled another as a “bloody pedophile,” which raises questions about her choice of language.
Other questionable remarks included telling a student they looked like a “frumpy old lady today” and responding to a student’s muffin bribery attempt with, “I’d be able to poop for a week ’cause of all that fiber.” Not to mention the time she bluntly told a student with coffee, “Get that freaking thing out of here.”
Perhaps her most shocking comment came when she said, “I have never said this to a student before but screw you,” making one wonder if she has indeed made similar remarks in private. And in a moment of unintended hilarity, she declared to the class, “It’s debate, not masturbate,” which could leave anyone wondering what was on her mind.
While her comments may have entertained some students, such behavior is clearly inappropriate for someone tasked with educating young minds, especially in a country known for its standards of kindness. In reviewing the full scope of her transgressions, the situation veers from humorous to concerning. Allegedly, Green-Johnson has shared personal trauma, stating that she “had been raped and therefore did not trust men around her children,” and made a crass comment to students playfully wrestling, saying, “so you like it from behind.”
This incident suggests that Green-Johnson may benefit from professional help well beyond a month off from school.
