hi there!

my boyfriend was just recently "let go" from a private school for drinking a beer in public.

it was not specifically stated in the contract that he could not drink beer in public (he wasn't even in the state!).

he's a first-year teacher, and he was given NO warning.

does he have rights?

(he had signed a 1-year contract.)
Teach in OK Is he apart of APOE or OEA? If so then I would get ahold of his union rep. or call the lawyer for his area in the union.

Jessica I would say that since it is a private school and he probably signed a statement saying something to the effect that he will conduct himself in a professional manner and will be a representative of his school, that he is probably up a creek without a paddle. It is not uncommon around here to sign a statement of conduct when hired. Good luck. Jessic...See More
