The following is an excerpt from Just The News.
An Ohio teacher filed a lawsuit against her former school after she said she was forced to quit for not using a student’s preferred pronouns, which would have violated her religious beliefs.
Vivian Geraghty was an English teacher at Jackson Memorial Middle School in Massillon until the district forced her to resign in August because she refused to participate in a student’s social transition to another sex by using different pronouns and a different name than the student had at birth.
The lawsuit, filed last week in federal court by the conservative legal nonprofit the Alliance Defending Freedom, said the school “unconstitutionally retaliated” against Geraghty for exercising her free speech and for her Christian beliefs.
The school forced her to resign although no students filed complaints and education was not disrupted, the lawsuit stated.
Teachers in other states have filed similar lawsuits for not participating in a student’s social gender transition.
In September, a former Kansas middle school teacher received a $95,000 settlement after she was suspended for not using a student’s preferred name and pronouns.
