Bonehead Homophobic Teacher gets suspended for Facebook post
Yesterday I posted an OP about a teacher and his anti-LGBTQ Facebook post: http://www.democraticunderground.com/10024685236
Today it was announced that he got suspended: http://www.wvgazette.com/News/201403190046
PARKERSBURG, W.Va. -- A Parkersburg South High School teacher has been suspended following a Facebook post he made regarding the school's Gay-Straight Alliance student club.
Wood County Schools Superintendent Pat Law tells the Parkersburg News and Sentinel that David Foggin was suspended on Tuesday for four days.
Law says the Wood County school board will decide whether the suspension is paid or unpaid, or whether to make any changes.
It's not enough, but it is a start.
