A teacher with Columbus Catholic Schools has been placed on leave after making comments to students on a Zoom call about the death of George Floyd.
Deborah DelPrince of Bishop Ready High School made unsupported personal assertions and opinions about Floyd s death. DelPrince said the manner of the black man s death at the hands of a white police officer is disputed, despite a medical examiner ruling his death a homicide.
The Diocese says they are investigating.
