Brooklyn Principal Loses Mind Over Video of Rant

An angry Brooklyn principal was caught on tape berating teachers after they trashed her on a crucial school survey, the Daily News has learned.

Public School 38 Principal Yolanda Ramirez is under investigation for threatening teachers after she received harsh reviews on last year’s survey.

The News obtained a secret recording of Ramirez lashing out at her teachers for nearly 40 minutes, telling them their brutal answers could cost the school – and all of them.

“If you don’t trust me, you air that in the school,” Ramirez is heard saying in the tape from June 2009, just after she learned the survey’s results.

“You don’t put that out there for the public because if I were to begin putting out some of your dirty laundry, a lot of you wouldn’t be here.”

Can I just say one thing?

Seeing as she wanted this aired in the school before the surveys, and seeing as she said she began “putting some of your dirty laundy, a lot of you wouldn’t be here,” why hasn’t anyone asked what she’s covering up? I mean, if there are things that she knows that are grounds for termination, shouldn’t she either be reporting them or terminating the parties involved?

Something to think about, I think.
