Last month, two female students at the school publicly posted an “apology” video on a TikTok account using the name of a seventh-grade teacher as a handle.

99% of the teachers who would be "attacked" in such a way are probably all child abusers anyway.

A few days after learning of the videos, Edward Souders, the principal of Great Valley Middle School, emailed the parents of eighth graders, describing the impostor accounts as portraying “our teachers in a disrespectful manner.”

Oh no! They were "disrespected". They berate students and scream at them for all kinds of stupid personal, unprofessional reasons, but oh no! They're being "disrespected"!

How will they ever recover from someone impersonating them online!? Some of those accounts might've even gotten a small amount of attention on an enormous platform like tiktok

Every teacher I ever had when I was in school only ever made the respect go one way. There was never any respect from the teacher toward the students.
