Florida Educator Terminated for Appearing in "The Full Monty"
Emil Steiner in the Washington Post blogs.
Is an educator responsible for the content of extra-curricular activities, (or pertaining to this incident: when appearing in a community theatre production of The Full Monty)?
Given the nature of the show, the nature of the production and the nature of the situation, I think that the school is overreacting. It’s not as if the students were forced to participate in the event; it just doesn’t seem fair. I hope someone finds this man a job – and soon.
