Florida Principal Resigns Amid Controversy Over Assembly Targeting Black Students

The principal of Bunnell Elementary School in Flagler County, Florida, has resigned following an assembly where Black fourth- and fifth-grade students were collectively told to improve their school performance. The principal and a teacher were placed on administrative leave after the assembly, which sparked outrage among parents. The assembly used a PowerPoint presentation that singled out African American students, stating they had underperformed on standardized assessments. The school district is currently conducting an ongoing investigation into the incident.
