Prompt to 8th-grade students: ‘I didn’t mean to kill her. I only wanted to hurt her’
Parents and citizens in Sparta, Tennessee were outraged after learning that a teacher in the local middle school gave her 8th-grade students a “creative writing” assignment with the following shocking sentence as a prompt: “I didn’t mean to kill her. I only wanted to hurt her, but now her ghost follows me everywhere.”
WND has learned that the teacher at White County Middle School (WCMS) who gave the bizarre assignment is Jessica Griffith, listed as an 8th-grade English Language Arts teacher on the WCMS website.
