She explained that her daughter, Azariah, heard a white student use the “N-word” during one of her classes at Doris Miller Jr. High School in San Marcos.

A Texas mom has filed a complaint with the San Marcos Consolidated Independent School District after she became aware of an insensitive racial comment made by her daughter’s teacher.
Tasha Fennell said her daughter Azariah, the sole Black student in the class, heard her classmate at Doris Miller Jr. High School use a racial slur back in December, and that the teacher responded without discouraging the use of the word.
According to Fennell’s formal complaint: A male student interrupted the class by opening the door and saying, “What’s up my n a?’” A male student in the classroom responds with, “Hey what’s up.” Azariah is sitting in the back talking to H.H., a female student. A male student said, “Dude, you can’t say that word,” while the class was still riled up from the classroom interruption.
