A charter school in College Park, Georgia, conducted an investigation after a teacher allegedly cursed at an eighth-grader and told her that if they were out on the “street,” she would “beat the f*** out of” her.

Channel 2 Action News reported that the incident occurred on Thursday when Rashaan Brown’s daughter was playing with another student at Main Street Academy. The two students reportedly threw some water on each other in class, and some of the water got on the teacher.

“The teacher ran up on my daughter and said, ‘If we were on the streets, I would f*** you up,’” Brown told the outlet. “If this is how she’s talking to kids, what else don’t we know about.”

According to the outlet, Brown was hopeful that his daughter, who is an honor roll student, was exaggerating what the teacher said. However, the principal read a statement from the teacher, which confirmed the outburst.

Brown recorded the statement on video. It read, “If you were anyone else on the street I would have beat the f*** out of you, but of course I cannot. I need you to get something to clean this up and I want a f****** apology.” According to the young student, the teacher was also in her face, and she feared the teacher would hit her.

Cheryl Parker, the school’s principal, informed Channel 2 that she has been in constant communication with the parents regarding the incident; however, Brown refutes that claim. Parker did not immediately respond to Yahoo Lifestyle’s requests for comment, but went on to inform Channel 2 Action News that the investigation is complete and she cannot disclose the details.
