Praise is in order for the principal of Churchill County High in Fallon, Nevada, and the county's school board for not backing down to bullying from the teacher union, which wanted to restrict a student's right to free speech.
A student at the high school wrote an article alleging that a music teacher withheld student audition tapes for a state musical competition. Unfortunatly, unions protect teachers, not students, and the union wanted to stop the article from being published.
The school district and principal disagreed and allowed the article to be published (a rare event in the hyper-sensitive public school apparatus, which has no qualms about squashing the constitutional rights of students).
So now the teacher has sued the school district. Maybe the teacher should instead take the opportunity to learn about something called integrity and salute the student for trying to keep the teacher honest.
