Eric Eiswert, principal at Pikesville High in Baltimore, MD, is under scrutiny after leaked audio surfaced, allegedly capturing him making derogatory comments about black students and the Jewish community. According to WMAR 2, Eiswert is heard expressing frustration over low test scores among black students and making unsettling remarks about Jewish families in the community.
The audio reveals Eiswert’s apparent annoyance, stating, “Between these ungrateful Black kids who can’t test their way out of a paper bag, or these teachers who just don’t understand. And if I have to get one more complaint from one more Jew in this community, I’m going to join the other side.”

The Baltimore County Public School is actively investigating the authenticity of the audio, but as of now, there is no official decision regarding Eiswert’s employment status. Billy Burke, executive director of the Council of Administrative and Supervisory Employees, suggests skepticism, asserting that they believe the audio is generated by artificial intelligence. “We believe that it is AI-generated. He did not say that,” Burke stated.
