Spring Break Grades Threat

Speaking, who is this?

Hi, Keisha.

This is uh Mr.

Roland Barnes, assistant uh principal here at um Academy, where your daughter uh Aisha goes.

Yes.

What's going on?

Is everything okay?

Everything is kind of uh well, I let me be honest.

It's not good right now.

Uh I wanted to call and actually have a uh private conversation with you about Aisha.

Oh God.

All right, tell me what's going on.

What's going on with Aisha?

Well, as you know, um spring break is gonna be coming up in March.

You do

Well we're we have a bit of an issue here.

I have done some research and I'm looking at all of the kids and how they're doing how well they're doing with their schoolwork, and Aisha doesn't seem to be doing well as she should be, uh uh living up to the expectations of the academy.

And what we're gonna have to do this spring break is Aisha will not be allowed to take a spring break with the rest of the kids.

We're gonna need her to come into school.

And there's several kids that are not gonna be able to go uh on spring break, and Aisha happens to be one of them.

There's at least 40 to 50 kids that will be coming to school that entire week that spring break is uh the most of the kids are out on spring break.

You have to be mistaken.

I mean, my daughter's a straight age student.

Uh you sure you've got the right Aisha?

You can't there she is actually the only Ayesha at the Academy, ma'am.

And um I I you know I I've looked at her her grades in the past.

She's had some great, some wonderful grades in the past.

I don't know what's taking place this semester.

Um

that she just seems to have dropped the ball.

And what we want to do is, you know, keep these kids focused.

As you know, you have to be accepted to be here at this particular school.

So, you know, it leaves me no uh no other outlet but to to have her come in and we're gonna buckle down and try to get them back on track.

So I wanted to personally give you a call and let you know what's going on with Ayesha here at the academy.

And we're we're this is terrible.

This is absolutely terrible.

I mean, we are here already in January, and I'm getting a call that my daughter's not doing good, and now you're gonna tell me that she can't go on a spring break trip in March.

If she I mean, as far as I'm concerned, my daughter, straight A, straight A, she's an amazing student.

She does really hard work.

She she always looks forward to going to school.

And I get a call today that she can't go in March.

Well, I mean, I'm sorry.

You gotta be careful.

I'm just saying going somewhere on a trip.

She's going on a trip.

I'm not going anywhere.

She's going on a trip.

I'm giving her full permission to go on a trip.

Okay.

Well, unfortunately, I'm requesting that she's at school.

So I don't know if your trip costs you a lot of money or if you can get a refund, but I'm calling you, letting you know I need her there on March 11th in the classroom, so we can buckle down and try to get her back on track.

No, well, I'm telling you, I paid for the trip and she's going on the trip.

I'm sorry.

And I don't appreciate this phone call because it's so late in the game.

I'm sorry.

She's going on a trip.

No, Miss Keisha, she's not going on a trip.

She is actually going to be coming into school and she'll be there on March 11th from Monday through Friday.

Now I don't know who you're talking to.

That's my child.

I'm telling her she's going to school.

But she's your child, but she's my student.

And right now, all of my students are gonna be that are that are not doing well in their in their classes, are gonna be there during spring break, and they're gonna get their business together.

No, no, no.

You don't yell at me like you're reprimanding me like I'm a child.

Okay?

I'm telling you now that my daughter's going on a trip.

No, she's not going on a trip, and you're telling me what you're you're trying to override my position.

And that's what's not gonna happen.

She has to be there.

You might as well start looking for a refund because she's not gonna not be there.

So I need her there Monday through Friday of spring break so we can get her back on course.

Listen, I don't know who the f you think you're talking to.

I have the ultimate position over even you.

That's my daughter.

That's my daughter.

I get to tell you what I'm doing to her.

She's going on that trip.

You're out of your fingers.

I have to allow not send my daughter on the trip.

Sorry.

It's not happening.

I'm telling you right now, she's not going on a trip.

Oh, yes, the hell she is.

Oh no, no, she's not.

I'm gonna speak with Aisha tomorrow and let her know that.

Not gonna tell my daughter a damn thing.

I'm telling her she's not going on a spring break trip.

You know why?

Because her grades, they're not up to par.

She needs to be more concerned about her grades and not going and hanging out and a lot of gaggling around wherever you're sending her.

No, it's not happening.

I want all of my students with passing grades.

I'm a 100% assistant principal, and all my kids pass.

What are you trying to convince yourself that you're important or something?

Give me a break.

It's like a baby.

My daughter is going on the trip, and that's final.

You hear me?

Okay.

You know what?

I'll speak with Aisha tomorrow morning as far as no, you're not.

Yes, I will.

Now here's the deal.

I'll leave you this, Miss Keisha.

If Aisha does not show up Monday through Friday of spring break, then maybe you're gonna have to find Aisha another school.

You're threatening me now?

You're threatening me.

You're threatening to what?

Kick my daughter out of school because of a spring break?

If your daughter's not here during spring break Monday through Friday, then she's going to go.

Oh, get the f out of here.

Please.

I'd like to see you try that sh.

Give me a break.

Miss Keisha, I think this conversation is over.

My next conversation will be with Aisha.

Guess what?

She's going on spring break.

She's staying in the school.

If you do something about it, I will have people picketing outside your your school.

You're telling talking about nonsense.

My daughter does great in school and she's going on a trip, and that's it.

Aisha will be in school Monday through Friday.

Go on spring break.

Back on the ball.

Who are you talking to?

Who are you yelling at like that?

Are you

mine?

I swear to God, if I was over there, I kick your f what the f is wrong with you.

Yo, you're out of control.

What if your daughter was a fluff?

Who the f are you talking to?

You know what?

You know what?

You know what Aisha told me about you?

Do you know what Aisha told me?

What?

Tell me, what did she tell you?

She told me to point phone called you.

This is nephew, Tommy.

From the Stephen Hoppin' Mod and so crazy.

Oh my God.

Are you good?

You all right, baby girl?

Yep.

That's awesome.

Oh my God, I was really gonna go over there and f you up.

I can't believe this.

Okay.

I gotta ask you something, Miss Keyson.
