Stonecipher, who also advised the student newspaper, believes she was removed because she has been outspoken in advocating for LGBTQ children and encouraging journalism students to investigate the sticker removal. According to her personnel file, which Stonecipher shared with NBC News, the district’s human resources office believed that Stonecipher had called MacArthur’s principal “homophobic,” which Stonecipher denies, and that she made colleagues uncomfortable when she shared her opinion about LGBTQ issues. Last month, she was notified that the district plans to terminate her contract.

This is one of the teachers that was fired. Is not because she is gay but because she is a nut job that did not want to conform with the school having a policy of neutrality and was a pain in the ass. The school apparently did not allow political messaging inside the classroom and told the teachers to remove their rainbow flags.
