Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry, a Republican, criticized a teacher and the education system after his office received submissions from students saying the educator required them to make complaints about issues such as climate change.
The governor shared screenshots of some of the submissions on Tuesday to the social media platform X.
“My teacher says climate change is bad , sorry to bother you,” one submission said.

Another student wrote: “my teacher made me sent this to you it for a grade , add more vet for cat and dog . and stop make power plant because it hurt earth.”
A third submission read: “idk my teacher is making me do this but I mean you need to fix the whole cancer ally thing.”
The governor’s office told WBRZ that the submissions were made by students of a teacher at West Side Montessori School in Hammond, Louisiana. It is unclear what subject or grade level the educator teaches.
Landry wrote on X that the education system prioritizes indoctrination over education.
“As I stated in my inaugural address, our education system is too focused on indoctrination instead of education,” Landry said.

“Look at the emails we received from students at a school in Hammond,” he continued. “A teacher required students to email our office to complain about climate change.”
The governor added: “It is NEVER the job of a teacher to push a political agenda. We are committed to bringing common sense education back to our classrooms!”
