honest question here. say that a highschool teacher or track coach is lonely and wants to use the craigslist casual encounters feature. can he get fired for this? im not talking about meeting underage people or anything like that. im talking about legal stuff between 2 consenting adults, can the school district fire him/her because it is an immoral act, or does that fall under his privacy life?

im also not referring to using a school computer to make the post. the teacher/coach does it on his home computer. can he still get fired for moral reasons if someone finds out?

If it's an elite school (public or private) where news of this could get out and hurt the rep of the school, or a religious based school with strict moral/religious criteria, then yes.

They don't tend to care if I post, but they don't like it when I call the hookers who post.

A school board can fire anyone for any reason that it wants.

However, I see no reason that they would find out, nor that it would be any of their business.

Yes, you can be fired for it. Public and private schools can fire teachers for that type of behavior, there is something in the contract about being of upstanding moral character, etc etc. Plenty of female teachers have been given the boot after someone outs them as a former porn star.

One of my professors told all of us prospective teachers something along the lines of "yes you have the RIGHT to drink, to go to a bar, to visit a strip clubs, or whatever.. BUT you will make life easier on yourself if you do these things out of town."

He basically said a 40 min. drive to the next town to do these things could really save you a lot of headache and embarrassment. Probably good advice.

Dating is not the same as being a porn star. However I see the OP mentioned posting in casual encounters.

It would be better to stick with the dating section, and stay away from posting in casual encounters.

this. especially if you are in a suburb/small town, think carefully about this kind of thing.
