Bunnell Elementary School teacher involved in controversial assembly with Black students resigns

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A Bunnell Elementary teacher has resigned after their involvement in an assembly that singled out Black students.

Anthony Hines was placed on administrative leave during a school district investigation but turned in his resignation Friday.

Hines reportedly told children at the assembly ’Unsuccessful students have a higher chance of going to jail or being shot or killed.’

Principal Donelle Evensen resigned last week.

Evensen signed off on assemblies last month.
