Wade, advocates condemned the controversial firing of a teacher in Amherst.
The school would not share details of the alleged incident with NBC10 Boston, but said all parents were notified. "I feel like the teacher was just doing what they felt, as a human, and putting their job at risk," said Maryrose Wainaina."As a student, you go to your teachers cause you trust them. A report from the New Hampshire Department of Education says the teacher admitted to faking a sick day to take the student to have a medical procedure. It also says the teacher assured she spoke to the student for more than two weeks about options and finding a safe facility.
