Teacher Fired For Facebook Comment

“He has some (expletive) disorder: one of those ‘we don’t know what his disorder is and we don’t want him to be labeled, so we are not going to find out, but we want academic accommodations anyway’ disorders,” Lynch wrote on her Facebook page. “On the way out, he says, ‘I’ll be the last student to walk through the doors of JCHS in 2015.’ No, that’s not funny, but tragic. Your life is tragic.”
Fulton County Schools released a statement saying that while they do not monitor the personal social media of their staff, they were appalled by Lynch’s lack of professionalism and good judgment.
People losing their job over Facebook comments is no new thing, even teachers losing their jobs over Facebook comments is no new thing. What’s scary is how many of them actually feel this way? I’m sure there’s not a lot but if they are out there, I hope they all put their comments on Facebook so we can identify them and get them away from students that need the right teachers in front of them to succeed.
