It’s 2018. Do we actually have to have a petition sign for people’s basic human rights to be protected? Bring that teacher back!

sad & unfair, students are here to learn as the teacher to teach them, her sexuality isn't a concern in any place/job.

As a teacher you do so much, you should never have hide who you are.

It's a freaking disgrace that we have to even sign petitions for something that should be a given. Shame on the district!

It's deplorable what the district did to this clearly dedicated teacher.

Sexual orientation is not a contaion or a threat in any classroom. Protect your employees

A good teacher should not be suspended for their core identity, especially since she devoted her all to her students as well as never pushed her sexuality on her students. She simply is queer, and that's just part of who she is, not some agenda.

Let’s make the school be honest about its reasons for the teacher’s suspension, so we can prevent it in the future. No more bull**** please.

We shouldn’t have to petition or sign letter for protection. Lgbt right are human rights. No if and or buts. There no discussion rights are rights. I though we lived in a civilized country that treated each other fair. I guess not if you fall into the lgbt category. This needs to stop now lgbt right are human rights.

If she is suspended talking about being gay every straight teacher talking about being straight should be suspended

This is so wrong if the school. Suspending someone for their sexual orientation is wrong on so many levels. If you’re a school you should be teach students about equality instead of making them go against it

Ridiculous that we are in 2018 and still have to fight for basic human rights.

I’m a senior in high school in NC, but I was born in south Texas where my parents taught for seven years. I am also bisexual and came out at 15. I grew up learning from my family that different sexualities were okay. I had teachers that supported me and showed me that I wasn’t strange, that who I am is valid, that I had a place to belong in school. Having LGBTQ+ teachers, as well as allies amongst the staff, is incredibly important to help educate children that everyone is different, and that’s okay. No one can influence one’s sexuality, not even teachers, because if that were the case, I would’ve been straight - yes, I had LGBTQ+ teachers, but the only teachers I had that would discuss their sexuality and relationships were the heterosexual ones.
