Dear Editor:
I find it repulsive and disgusting that we allow someone who represents the Jersey City Public School system to say such horrible things about young women residing in Jersey City. I am a 16 year old female resident and I am personally insulted by Dr. Epps’ remarks.
Someone in such high power should not speak down on those he represents. He may call it a “mistake” or something that was worded incorrectly, but as the highly, paid leader of our schools he is expected no to make those kinds of mistakes and needs to be punished when he does. The comments were rude, sexist, judgmental and completely unprofessional.
Sincerely yours,
Zoe Smith
