Careful all you Beyonce-loving teachers out there, bringing Bey into
the classroom could cost you your job. The Atlanta Public School System
has terminated 6th grade teacher Nikki Turner for playing “Drunk In
Love” to her class.
Although their problems with Ms. Turner go farther than her Beyonce playing, “Drunk in Love” definitely played a role, according to the The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
The administration explained, “This song contained profanity,
vulgarity, and sexually explicit lyrics. This song is not [in] alignment
with Teacher Keys Standard 9, Professionalism.” Unfortunately this was
just one of dozens of complaints against the teacher, that included her
failure to “demonstrate knowledge of the sixth-grade math concepts” and
“properly plan lessons.”
College students, meanwhile, can take an entire course about Mr. and Mrs. Carter, like “Politicizing Beyonce,” at Rutgers or “Leaders In Music: Jay-Z” at NYU.
