Teacher is accused of telling students he is ‘actually a woman’ who ‘likes boys,’ turns into a wolf at night.
Following a complaint letter from the Liberty Counsel on behalf of several parents, an elementary school in a district that serves military families in North Carolina has fired a teacher who identifies as a “trans wolf.”
CBN reports concerned parents had asked Liberty Counsel to assist with the “confused and terrified” kindergarten and pre-K students at Mildred B. Poole Elementary School, part of the Department of Defense Education Activity, or DoDEA, district.
In a February 9 “demand” letter, Liberty Counsel alleged the “male, trans-identified” substitute teacher/teacher’s aide had “engaged in disturbing behavior” for about a year, which included wearing “feminine” clothes, a dog collar with “fetish tags,” and a tail.
The teacher also was accused of telling kids he “turns into a wolf at night,” that “he is ‘actually a woman’ who ‘likes boys,’” and that he required students to refer to him by some of his “wolf” names. Some of these names included “Roxxanne Wildheart,” “Captain Roxxie,” and “savagebeastqueen.”
Other accusations included:
- After allegedly being reprimanded for wearing a tail, the teacher commented on social media “If I had a tail, I stg [swear to God]. Like an actual one, not a fake one like the ones I’m not allowed to wear to work anymore because people wanna be straight up pearl clutching bitches about it for no reason.”
- A student told her mom she was worried the teacher was “going to come eat [her]” because he told everyone “again” that he turns into a wolf at night.
- The teacher wore “black fishnet stockings, tights that are “shredded” or have holes in them, black miniskirts, [and] black combat boots” (in addition to the dog collar with fetish tags).
The letter also pointed to numerous examples of the teacher’s social media posts (many from his since-been-made-private Instagram account) which feature sexually suggestive and violent narratives and images.
At the end of January, Poole Principal Lisa McGee allegedly told two parents she “can’t do anything about how [the teacher] dresses, because there is no official dress code and because he is ‘transgender.’”
Liberty Counsel wanted the “immediate suspension” of the teacher and “removal from any contact with children” pending an investigation “which should result” in the teacher’s firing.
Liberty Counsel’s Mat Staver said the school district “must protect these impressionable children from this gross and disturbing behavior.” The letter had given a deadline of February 16 for a response or it would take “additional action.”
But news of the teacher’s termination was announced in a big way on February 20: Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, who has 1.8 million followers on X, posted that “The ‘Wolf’ was fired 2 weeks ago.”
The same day, Liberty Counsel received a letter from the Department of Defense Education Activity’s general counsel which said the district was “coordinating with the appropriate agencies to carefully review the situation,” but noted it had “severed the employment relationship with the individual referenced in [the L.C.] letter.”
Principal McGee did not respond to a request for comment from The College Fix, but in a Feb. 21 email, the Department of War Education Activity Communications Chief Jessica Tackaberry noted the district “does not tolerate this type of behavior” and that the teacher “has been barred from Fort Bragg.”
