Henriquez claimed that student suffered mental health issues as a result of being promoted.<\/p>\n<p>As the school drew to a close, 58% of the school&#8217;s teachers signed a no-confidence letter, according to Veronica Welinsky-Sorkin, the UFT District Representative.<\/p>\n<p>The principal had just completed her first year as principal, but the school community was dismayed enough by Rivera&#8217;s behavior that they contacted elected officials for help.<\/p>\n<p>Two of those electeds, State Senator Julia Salazar and Assemblymember Maritza Davila,\u00a0both attended\u00a0the press conference.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;For about a month and a half, I have been trying to help\u00a0resolve an issue alongside the teachers and parents that are here,&#8221; Davila said. &#8220;It has come to my attention that several teachers and staff are being targeted, abused\u00a0and retaliated upon after putting in complaints in writing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"widget widget-dfp gam widget-inject widget-inject-centre\" data-id=\"901614\" data-widget=\"41\" data-per=\"40\" data-min=\"\" data-path=\"\/21842630800\/NET_Inline1\" data-lazy=\"true\" data-targeting=\"[]\" data-dim-m=\"[[300, 250], [300, 600], [300, 300], [320, 320], [336, 280], [320, 50], [360, 120], [320, 100], 'fluid']\" data-dim-t=\"[[300, 250], [300, 300], [320, 320], [640, 480], [320, 50], [360, 120], [320, 100], 'fluid']\" data-dim-d=\"[[300, 250], [300, 300], [320, 320], [640, 480], [320, 50], [360, 120], [320, 100], 'fluid']\" data-size=\"[[300, 250], [300, 300], [320, 320], [640, 480], [320, 50], [360, 120], [320, 100], 'fluid']\">\n<div class=\"slot slot-widget slot-is-empty\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/21842630800\/NET_Inline1_1__container__\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Davila added she contacted Superintendent Rebecca Lozada about the &#8220;atrocities&#8221;\u00a0only for the superintendent to say she would not\u00a0take Rivera out of the school.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If your principal does not respect you or feels that she has an iron fist, it&#8217;s not going to work,&#8221;\u00a0Davila said.\u00a0&#8220;Teachers that have claimed\u00a0that they are going to the hospital, she has personally shown up to the hospital to make sure that the teacher was in an emergency.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Salazar explained that I.S. 347&#8217;s faculty and staff had spent several months doing what they could to rectify the\u00a0problems.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re talking about abusive behavior,&#8221; Salazar said. &#8220;We know that those who had the courage to speak up, who have in some ways risked their jobs&#8230;they have faced retaliation.
