Surely from what i read and the comments this man is passing judgement based upon his on religious beliefs which will lead him into some serious dangerous matters.

If you can't honor what is in the document, don't sign on the dotted line! However, disclosing her personal business to other teachers and parents was an unnecessary invasion of her privacy, and unless she "signed off" on that too in the contract, there is NO justification for why that happened. It is good that you all care enough to speak up for her at this time... she is lucky. Some of us have no one who cares enough to even do that much.Lady (Bug)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623792489158195598.post-10851926905815395002010-06-16T15:19:39.569-04:002010-06-16T15:19:39.569-04:00I heard about this story the other day and from wh...I heard about this story the other day and from what I understand, part of her contract states that she must abide by Christian values. However, I wonder what prompted the principal to ask in the first place. Is it customary to ask a woman when she was married, given that she was single when she started the position? Hmmm. It appears to me, there might be some other underlying reason as to why she was targeted in this manner. <br /><br />Even if I were to agree that he was within his rights to fire her, I don't feel he was within his rights to broadcast the underlying reasons to other teachers and parents.Rich Fitzgeraldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02402320643799892517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623792489158195598.post-33085927670784206772010-06-16T15:08:25.905-04:002010-06-16T15:08:25.905-04:00Never has one of your blog posts been so hotly deb...Never has one of your blog posts been so hotly debated friend...Good job..LOL!Seannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623792489158195598.post-11343051752472771162010-06-16T15:07:47.666-04:002010-06-16T15:07:47.666-04:00While I agree the question was personal and intrus...While I agree the question was personal and intrusive..It all came with working at that type of institution...She had to know what she was getting into when she agreed to work there.James Perkinsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623792489158195598.post-37881395728471337722010-06-16T15:06:24.889-04:002010-06-16T15:06:24.889-04:00This whole thing was just crazy!This whole thing was just crazy!Jazzynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623792489158195598.post-75997179609967812102010-06-16T15:05:45.072-04:002010-06-16T15:05:45.072-04:00I wonder if Principal Ennis has asked any other wo...I wonder if Principal Ennis has asked any other women who have requested maternity leave such a question?Sunflowernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623792489158195598.post-56071169911746059762010-06-16T15:04:44.340-04:002010-06-16T15:04:44.340-04:00What a pious and intrusive a-hole...I wouldn't...What a pious and intrusive a-hole...I wouldn't have answered that question.

Ms. Hamilton worked for a Christian School which promotes Christian values, among which is the admonition against premarital sex. I don't think an adult should model behavior that is directly opposite of their spoken commitment. Christian teachers need to model Christian behavior. Ms. Hamilton could have taught at any school, but teaching at a Christian school requires she follow a different set of rules. The principal did what needed to be done and should stand by his decision. <br />Cousin you are right that we would have had strong words for Dr. Ackerman and the School District of Phila. if this had happened at Dunlap School, but what could we have said to Dr. Bronson if this had happened at Sanctuary Christian Academy?? Are we to put our values away and accept this teacher's moral code in deference to Christ's?<br />And...careful who you listen to and call your "friend." We'll have to talk about your word choice of "bitch like" to describe this situation.Arlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00949900173613954936noreply@blogger.com
