Webster Teacher To Retire After Remark Made In Class

A chance remark in a North Webster Elementary classroom has led to the early retirement of a 31-year teaching veteran. A remark Phyllis Roberts made to her class two weeks ago was overheard by someone passing by, leading Roberts to retire from her position. Officials will not say exactly what Roberts said, but the remark is believed to be of a discrimantory nature. Val Conner of the Indiana State Teachers Association said there was "no malicious intent" in Roberts' remark, but "the context of the comment was exacerbated by the situation" in the school system last year. A Syracuse Elementary teacher came under fire last spring for distributing in her class a worksheet on the Ku Klux Klan.

"We had indicated to the city council that we didn't want to come back (to the council until June 19th with a revision of the original plan)," Meijer attorney Steve Snyder said.
