A security officer at Blair Middle School was dismissed after allegedly ordering an 11-year-old student to duct tape her mouth as punishment during lunch. The girl's father reported the incident, emphasizing his daughter's humiliation as she was made to walk to the principal's office with the tape on. The Pasadena Unified School District has expressed serious concern over the matter and is cooperating with authorities. This incident left a lasting impact on the child, highlighting potential issues in school disciplinary practices.
According to Hurtado, the security guard approached his daughter again about her talking. She said that she's gonna sit her down and she better put the duct tape on or she's gonna do it herself.
We take concerns like this very seriously and are cooperating fully with the Pasadena Police Department, the district said in a statement. We are committed to maintaining a safe and supportive environment for our students.
