A Washington mother said her daughter received a virtual report card over the weekend full of sexual expletives and profanity.

The student attends 4th grade at McCarver Elementary, where teachers use the app ClassDojo to make parents aware of behavioral issues and keep track of their child’s progress.

ClassDojo uses a virtual reward system. Students are given a plus for good behavior and a minus for bad. On a daily basis, parents can keep track of what’s going on in the classroom.

“She got +1 for being responsible and this is by the teacher,” read Darylann Pease about her daughter A’mya’s glowing report on Friday. “Another +1 for being responsible, +1 for persistence,” she said.

However, Pease received a few more comments later that weekend, ones that horrified her.

“A -5 for having a big butt,” read Pease, censoring the report card as she went on. “How could somebody write this about a student,” she asked. “A child that young.”

Her 9-year-old daughter was being rated and berated virtually by somebody who claimed to be a teacher at McCarver Elementary.

“She was crying and really hurt and asking why the teacher thought she was a b****, and why were people talking about her butt,” she said.

The app is password protected and takes measures to ensure only the teachers and parents can access information or communicate. The troubled mother says she hopes this is a rude prank from a hacker and not somebody who actually works at the school.

Local news reached out to the Tacoma School District when we learned of report card on Sunday. The school was unaware of the incident but they said they had a tech team investigating immediately. They confirmed they do not have any teachers at McCarver Elementary with this particular name used on the ClassDojo card.

Does your child’s school use ClassDojo or have you heard of schools using similar programs to assess students? Tell us your thoughts of this story in the comments and please SHARE with friends and family.
