There are rumors going around that the ‘hawk tuah’ girl, who gained viral attention, was fired from her job as a preschool teacher. However, upon investigation, it has been discovered that these claims are false.
In June 2024, Hailey Welch gained viral internet fame after being interviewed on the street by ‘TimandDeeTV’ where she referred to spitting as ‘hawk tuah’.
Ever since, she has gained immense popularity and wasted no time in launching her own merchandise – an achievement that was praised by Joe Rogan on an episode of the Joe Rogan Experience.
As the focus on her grew, rumors began to circulate about Welch’s employment, with some speculating that she had been fired from her teaching position due to the video.

Despite there being a viral claim on X, a user shared a video claiming that Hailey was fired due to students discussing her fame, which the school’s administration saw as having a negative impact.
The source of the accusations can be identified as a Facebook page called the ‘Tippah County Tribune.’
On June 21, the page posted that a preschool teacher, known as the ‘hawk tuah’ girl, had been compelled to step down due to her sudden online fame.
According to Epstein Day School Director Carla Reed, we have noticed some concerning behavior among our students. It seems that they have been imitating the actions of their beloved Miss Hailey, who they look up to as a role model, after hearing her say ‘spit on that thang’ on YouTube. While we have a lot of love for Hailey, as one of our faculty members, this type of behavior is not something we can condone.
The ‘hawk tuah’ girl has not been fired despite viral claims.
The post further alleges that Hailey was seeking “justice”against the school and accused it of discriminatory practices.
Although Tippah County Tribune may not always present factual information, it is simply a parody account. The page even openly acknowledges this by describing itself as “Tippah County’s top source for satirical humor.”
The website also includes additional fabricated statements regarding Welch, including claims that a nearby Native American community took offense to her use of the phrase ‘hawk tuah’ and a report that CB&S bank would be offering special debit cards featuring Hailey’s image.
Despite this, users continue to mistake the satire for truth, leading to a proliferation of inaccurate claims on the internet.
