Student Expelled When Mother Complains About Teacher’s Political Activities
Student’s mom speaks out against teacher’s political activities, teacher is fired, student is expelled. Bizarre on all counts.
Read more about it at the expelled student’s blog, Stand Up and Speak out, here and here. The Sacramento Bee has other background details (before the expulsion) here:
The mother of a Loretto High School student obtained photographs that exposed a drama teacher as a former Planned Parenthood volunteer, a revelation that led to the teacher’s firing last week. It wasn’t the first time Wynette Sills raised her anti-abortion views on the all-female, private Catholic campus.Sills, who leads anti-abortion rallies outside Sacramento-area Planned Parenthood offices three times a week, complained to school administrators last year about a classroom presentation on domestic violence, said Gail Erlandson, a theology teacher for 11 years at Loretto.
