Statement from CUB President on Cafeteria Worker Assault

A Message to Members from CUB President Antoinette Ryan-Johnson on the Assault on a Cafeteria Worker at National Academy Foundation Middle/High School

The recent violent assault of a long-serving Cafeteria Manager and loyal member of the City Union of Baltimore, resulting in severe injuries requiring hospitalization, is a distressing event. Attacks on cafeteria staff and other school related personnel have been understudied and underpublicized and leave this population at risk for violence. Our schools are, and should be, an environment of learning, collaboration, and community; not an environment of disrespect and violence where students feel at liberty to assault anyone including a caring and respectful Cafeteria Manager.
