"It's Orwellian," Anne Protopappas, a celebrated educator who had taught at the prestigious $65,000 a year school since 1999, told The Post.
"So you teach the daughter of the head of the school, and then you can't teach anymore? You don't just destroy people - like now, I have nothing. No livelihood, nothing."
"You can't have a faculty that is terrorized if you really want to teach those skills to the young minds. And we almost switched from a culture of humility to a culture of insecurity."
Protopappas says that she was viewed by students and parents - many of whom attended her special "Salon" classes open to the public - as a "quintessential Spence teacher" who valued "truth" and students.
