An Ontario teacher who told a student to “lick me where I fart” and called another student “a bloody pedophile” has had her licence suspended for two months.
Jennifer Elizabeth Green-Johnson was found guilty of professional misconduct this week, following a hearing before the Ontario College of Teachers.
The most recent allegations against her stem from the 2015-16 school year. According to a 2016 hearing notice from the college, Green-Johnson made a number of inappropriate comments to students. They include:
- Calling a student a “bloody pedophile.”
- Telling a student, “I have never said this to a student before but f—k you.”
- Saying “Why don’t you lick me where I fart,” while talking to a student about a piece of gum.
- Telling a student, “It sounds like your ass cheeks are too close together.”
On another occasion, a student offered to buy Green-Johnson muffins in exchange for a passing grade. According to the Ontario College of Teachers’ document, she replied: “You mean a bribe? I’d be able to shit for a week ‘cause of all that fibre.”
Green-Johnson also told a female student that she “looked like a frumpy old lady” one day, the document states.
In response to CTVNews.ca’s request for comment, Green-Johnson’s legal counsel Andrea Wobick said the teacher “does not wish to make any statements or comments on the proceedings before the College, and does not want to be contacted.”
This isn’t the first reprimand for Green-Johnson. In January, 2016, she pleaded no contest to several allegations of professional misconduct dating back to 2011.
According to a statement of uncontested facts, one of those incidents involved two male students who were “play wrestling” outside Green-Johnson’s class. When one student jumped on the other’s back, she said something to the effect of, “So you like it from behind.”
At the time, Green-Johnson’s teaching licence was suspended retroactively for one month.
Green-Johnson is still listed as a teacher at Dunnville Secondary School in Dunnville, Ont.
