Elmbrook Middle School Teacher Suspended After Giving Kids Nazi Salute and Told Class to Respond with "Heil ____"

The district said the teacher did not intend to cause harm.

Community members report that an eight grade math teacher from Wisconsin Hills middle school gave the Nazi salute to her class and told the class to respond with either "Heil Hilter" or "Heil [Teacher Surname]."

This teacher joined Elmbrook in August of 2023, but previously worked as a High School math teacher in New Berlin, and had experience in Greendale and Madison previously.

Community members report there were previously complaints about how this teacher ran her class.

As reported on local news, "The principal at Wisconsin Hills Middle School in Brookfield sent a letter to parents confirming the incident took place last Thursday, Sept. 21.

The letter said the school investigated and determined the teacher did not intend to cause harm, but did violate school policy.

The letter said corrective measures are being taken, but did not fully elaborate."
