Ohio Teacher Fired After Racist Remarks To Student On Being President Remember this guy??? According to Cincinnati Enquirer: The Fairfield teacher accused of slurring an African -American student lost his job Thursday in the wake of a labor hearing that concluded with that recommendation. Freshman science teacher Gil Voigt has been on unpaid leave since December. After the Fairfield Board of Education received a state referee’s decision that “there is good and just cause to terminate the teaching contract,” the board voted 4-0 Thursday evening, with one board member absent, to end his employment with the Butler County school system. Voigt has declined to comment but told The Enquirer on Friday he plans to appeal the referee’s ruling with the Butler County Court of Appeals. Fairfield Superintendent Paul Otten also recommended the board discontinue the veteran teacher’s employment contract. “The district felt that the evidence was sufficient to support the termination of Mr. Voigt’s employment. The referee recommended such termination, and the board has concurred,” said Otten in a statement released Thursday evening. Voigt is alleged to have told an African-American student at Fairfield Freshman School, who had professed his desire to follow Barack Obama as president, that “we do not need another black president.” Voigt has previously said he was misquoted by the student, whom he described as troublesome. His suspension has drawn national attention and the condemnation of officials in the Butler County school system as well as area NAACP officials. He later told Fairfield officials that what he said to the teen was, “I think we can’t afford another president like Obama, whether he’s black or white.” Voigt now has the option of appealing the referee’s decision to Butler County Common Pleas Court within 30 days. Good riddance muhfugga!

With all the violence going on in Chicago, it’s nice to hear some good news. Urban Prep School Sends All Graduates To College If only more schools could follow in their footsteps. According to The Huffington Post: All 167 graduating seniors of Chicago’s Urban Prep Academies are college-bound for the fourth consecutive year. Students of the two Chicago public charter high schools — located in the city’s Englewood and University Village neighborhoods — gathered Thursday morning to celebrate the achievement of their schools, which some have dubbed “Hogwarts in the Hood” for their impressive, seemingly magical rates of success, CBS Chicago reports. Still, Urban Prep’s founder and CEO Tim King says, “the only magic going on at Urban Prep is the magic that these guys put in with their hard work and dedication.” Mayor Rahm Emanuel was on hand at the Thursday celebration and said the network’s students were setting a fine example others should follow, the Chicago Defender reports. “I want everyone in this city, I want everyone in this country to look up here,” Emanuel said. According to Fox Chicago, 85 percent of the students at Urban Prep’s campuses come from low-income families and many of the students start at least two grade levels behind where they should be. All of this year’s graduates are African-American males, as are the majority of the network’s students. We wish the young men well as they pursue higher education. Shutterstock
