The director allowed “Ms. Hamilton” and school safety to disrespect the young adults who were hosting a dance recital/fundraiser on 2/8/20. They interrupted the show because they wanted to leave and “Had things to do, places to be and ppl to see” quoting the tall dike looking school safety with the short hair cut. They deliberately threw all the kids out the building without calling parents and shortly after threw out the young adults hosting the show. They put all belongings out on the door step and locked the doors not caring about the safety of others . It was then “ms.hamilton” tried to attack one of the Hosts volunteers. As the volunteer prepped to defend herself “Ms. Hamilton” Ran scared, locked back the school doors and called the police. She needs to be gone. Period. They were not professional and not being adults. They were capital B’s or shall i say female dogs.
