NORCO, CA — A Southern California teacher was caught leading her students on a chant against President Joe Biden on video posted to social media.

The video was sent to 14 sets of parents, according to Christina McFadden whose daughter is a student in the teacher's class at Turning Point Christian School in Norco.

"A teacher does not have the right to indoctrinate her students," McFadden wrote in a Facebook post. "This video was planned, practiced, recorded and the teacher was so comfortable with it she sent it to 14 sets of parents. She was so proud of this content what else did she teach my child this year?"

McFadden further explained that the teacher remains in the classroom and that the school refused her request for a tuition reimbursement.

"I will not be commenting on the name of the school. My goal is not to spread hate as they tried with my daughter but instead to encourage others to advocate with me," she wrote.

The video was shared to a communication app used by the school, McFadden told the Los Angeles Times.

The video was later deleted and replaced with this message from a school administrator: “Earlier today a video was posted that has since been deleted as it did not share our school and church philosophy of honoring and respecting authority including those in government position," according to a screenshot provided to the Los Angeles Times.
