Montessori School in Newton, MA Closes Down; Kids Held Black Faces on Paper Plates to Faces

A Montessori preschool in Massachusetts has shut down and apologized after a classroom full of toddlers painted black faces on paper plates and held them up to their own faces to celebrate Black History Month, the Fox 8 website reports today (February 15, 2022).


ICKids in Newton posted a statement  on the school's front door and on Facebook.


The teacher who planned and carried out the activity on February 8 has been fired, and the school has closed its doors.
