A brave and outspoken 11-year-old girl says that she has been kicked out of school after she refused to continue wearing a mask in her hot classroom — declaring the requirement to be child abuse.
Jenna Miller is a student at Cahill Elementary School in New York and passionate BMX rider.
On Wednesday, Miller posted on Instagram blasting her school district for forcing children to “muzzle” themselves in classrooms that can reach temperatures around 90 degrees.
“Today was a hard emotional day for me. Today I stood my ground and I was very adamant to standing up for what’s right and making it known it’s not a safe environment no longer being in a hot classroom with no Air conditioning with temperatures yesterday of 96° and today was a high of 86° masked and slaved to concentrate and do work at our desks with sweat pouring off of me,” Miller captioned a photo of herself leaving the school.
Our little school Mount Vernon-Enola High School haven't been wearing masks since before Christmas.
