A San Diego elementary school teacher posted a social media video showing her flipping an American flag upside down and posting an “Abolish ICE” sign on her classroom wall.
Bailey Hill Ringer, a first-grade teacher at Audubon Elementary School, is now being probed by the San Diego Unified School District after the unhinged video blew up on social media and sparked outrage.
The 22-second clip, shared Sunday by “Libs of TikTok” on X, shows the 27-year-old educator removing an American flag from her classroom wall and re-hanging it upside down as “The Hanging Tree” from “The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1” plays in the background.
Ringer is then seen brazenly stapling an “Abolish ICE” sign beside the inverted flag, a recognized signal of dire distress and extreme danger.
The deranged video – reportedly deleted from the teacher’s TikTok – drew swift backlash online, with critics demanding she be fired and blasting her actions as “unacceptable.”
“Fire her! Did she forget she teaches at a public school,” one commenter raged on X.
Another said: “No place for protest symbols around first graders.”
“That is gross behavior,” one outraged person fumed, adding that “activism and politics needs to stay out of the classroom.”
Others slammed the video as “disgraceful,” called for the school district to be defunded, and urged parents to homeschool their kids.
The district told The Post Tuesday that Ringer’s video is under investigation.
“The school and district are aware of the situation,” district spokesperson, James Canning, said in a statement, noting that classes are proceeding as usual, with no disruptions.
“It is being reviewed in accordance with district policies and procedures. Because this involves a personal matter, we’re unable to discuss specific details. Our priority is ensuring students remain safe, supported, and engaged in learning.”
The district warns in its social media policy that employees may face consequences for online behavior or speech that could disrupt school operations, according to its website.
Ringer did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
