Nathan Tuttle was put on leave from Edison School for the Arts, an Indianapolis public school that serves kindergarten to eighth grade students, after allegedly directing the slur toward a student of color.
Parents and teachers have demanded a magnet school in Indiana take more serious action after its CEO was accused of using the N-word in front of students. But at a special board meeting on Tuesday night, community members accused Tuttle of creating a toxic environment. “When I heard what happened...
it wasn’t surprising because [Tuttle] made a lot of very racially insensitive and sexually insensitive comments throughout the school year that made me uncomfortable and was the reason I ended up filing a complaint,” a former teacher said, adding that Tuttle made comments about Black families that “were just terrible.” Another teacher claimed she and 20 others left because of Tuttle.
