Petition · Reinstate Mr. V at Catonsville High School
I am a former student at Catonsville High School. i graduated in the class of 26
I am angry.
I am sickened.
Mr V was one of the only staff members who gave a fuck about any of us.
They fired him for speaking up about the abuse and mistreatment in our school, mainly with SPED students.
I will not let our voices be drowned out
. We all need to stand up to make our schools better.
The teachers were speaking inappropriately and doing inappropriate things, and Mr V spoke the truth.
They silenced him
but they can't silence all of us.
you can sign this petition
or you can share this
but we will not be silenced.

taken from the description for the petition
"Mr. V was more than just a hall monitor at Catonsville High School; he was a mentor, a confidant, and a friendly face who genuinely cared about each and every student. On Thursday, October 1st, he was wrongfully dismissed from his position—a decision that not only affects him, but also deeply impacts the lives of the students he has positively influenced.
Mr. V was terminated for "keeping it 1000"—for speaking the truth. He had the courage to bring to light unacceptable behavior happening within our school. Teachers were allegedly behaving inappropriately with students and neglecting their responsibilities, especially those crucial for the care of kids in wheelchairs. Instead of addressing these critical issues, the administration chose to silence the voice of righteousness by firing Mr. V. This is not just unfair; it is a grave injustice.
And Mr V was wrongfully terminated for just doing his job keeping children safe
For me, and many of my peers, Mr. V was someone who always had time for us, always asked how we were doing, and never hesitated to offer guidance whenever needed. Losing him not only hinders our school environment but also negates a reliable support system for countless students.
The responsibility of any educational institution is to protect and nurture its students, not to hide behind closed doors when allegations arise. It is imperative that Catonsville High School reinstates Mr. V, conducts a thorough investigation into these allegations, and takes appropriate action against any misconduct.
Let's call on school administrators to do the right thing. Mr. V stood up for our welfare and safety. now it's our turn to stand up for him. Please sign this petition to bring justice for Mr. V and ensure a safe, honest environment at Catonsville High School. Every signature counts, and your support can make a real difference."
