A Houston mother, who said her daughter was well-behaved at home, was worried about what was going on in her child's classroom because the girl had been suspended four times for bad behavior.
Teacher: 'Y'all Are Just Stupid Kids'
So, Diana Mijares decided to secretly bug her daughter's backpack and was shocked to hear what was on the tape.
"It made us concerned," Mijares said on "Good Morning America" today. "It was enough and we needed answers."
Megan Mijares' digital tape recorded mostly mundane moments at Memorial Elementary School's prekindergarten class, but then it captured the teacher yelling at the group of 4- and 5-year-olds. All of it happened without Megan's or her teacher's knowledge.
"You're just a bad kid," the teacher says on the six-hour tape. "You're mean to me, so I get to be mean to you."
The teacher, who was not identified, continues to harshly scold the children.
"You are all just stupid kids. I swear to God," the teacher says. "You are just all stupid kids." (more) (video)
