Terrorist-loving NYC teacher: Letters to the Editor Oct. 7, 2026

How Damien Neva was approved to teach in PS77 raises serious questions (“Devil in the classroom,” Oct.5).The Department of Education and the school’s principal failed to assess his suitability to teach impressionable kids in public school.Did he plan to teach both sides of the Gaza and Hamas tragedy? Did he have a lesson plan? Did he have suitable references?Anyone who praises a cruel terrorist like Yahya al-Sinwar could never conduct a fair and objective discussion with students about differing points of view.Mel YoungWest Dover, Vt.Paging Education Secretary Linda McMahon — isn’t it your job to fix this mess?If she was hired to clean up and root out all the extremism being taught in schools across the United States, then she’s AWOL.

Nothing is ever done to correct this kind of stuff.Can someone alert the Education Department to please fix our schools?And here’s a thought: Could the voters stop voting for the people who allow this to continue?Sara GershonSyossetSo much for New York City schools teaching kids “reading, ’riting and ’rithmetic.”With radical teachers like Damien Neva and his ilk, today’s curriculum is more about “rioting, resistance and racism.”Thomas De JulioDelray Beach, Fla.This slimeball misanthrope found a spot in New York City’s educational system.

Duh! I’m sure there are many more just like him because we know the stench of his behavior and those in the universities are quite common.This Neva character has the audacity to laud a guy who would behead him in a New York second.As for his tenure as a teacher that we as taxpayers pay for, it’s time to send this fetid cretin packing.Students need fundamentals, not hateful rhetoric from some loser.Kevin JudgeNaples, Fla.Lessons that should be learned: Hamas sympathizers should not be piloting planes, nor should they be teaching our children.The consequences could lead to death, something terrorists specialize in.Donathan SalkalnManhattan Subscribe to our dail...
