EL PASO, Texas (KFOX14) — A recording of an English teacher at Franklin High School stirred up debate with parents and students.
A moment in teacher's class Monday was recorded and later shared on a local blogger's Facebook account.
The post asked people looking at the video to be vigilant. "Be vigilant! Talk to your kids, be involved with your schools, make your voice heard, VOTE!"
In the video, the teacher is heard saying, "Stop calling them that. You're not allowed to label people like that. Stop it, Diego. We are not going to call them that. We're going to call them, MAPs. Minor Attracted Persons. So don't judge people just because they want to have sex with a 5-year-old."
The El Paso Independent School District stated it's aware of a classroom situation and is investigating.
Any allegation of potential misconduct is investigated thoroughly, and the safety of our students is a top priority. As this is a personnel matter, no further information will be shared at this time, stated a spokeswoman from EPISD.
