It's a public school. We've only heard the coaches side of the story though, who knows why he was really fired?
The Muslim dude has a screw loose though if he thinks he can fire someone because of his religious beliefs and conversion rate.

I agree, and it appears that this was a public school and a teacher with tenure. The superintendent has stated that religion didn't play a role in the firing. Guess we'll see.
It appears that the student who converted was not yet a student at the high school and that he was attending a private wrestling camp, according to the lawsuit. Michigan Messenger » Fired wrestling coach files suit against Dearborn Fordson
This should be interesting to see how it unfolds. I don't think the school can legally comment on a pending case though.

feel free to tell me all about the vast differences in the two.  Mine does not give information as to whether the assistant was or was not employed by the school system or what the coach's involvement with the alleged conversion is supposed to have been.
Mine does not mention the incident where the principal is alleged to have punched the student.
But check Officer Crowley's report. I'm sure you'll get all the facts there. |

This should be interesting to see how it unfolds. I don't think the school can legally comment on a pending case though. The one somewhat unbiased news report I read stated he wasn't a teacher with tenure but someone used as needed, or at will...something to that effect. His contract was renewable and the school choose not to renew it.

Rep Power: 410 | | Here's the link: Quote: Marszalek, a member of the Michigan Wrestling Association's hall of fame, declined comment Monday.
Dearborn Public Schools also declined to comment. John Artis, who was superintendent until last summer, said Marszalek was an at-will employee who reported to the Fordson principal. He said discrimination on the basis of religion had no role in the dismissal.
"There were a number of things tied into that. ... A tough decision had to be made," Artis said. Coach Claims He Was Fired Because of His Christianity

No, I hadn't read that last bit. I can't remember which article said he was tenured (I tend to skim through a bunch looking for the common thread), but I'll post it if I can find it.

His contract was renewable and the school choose not to renew it. I think at-will is a description of the state policies. But I"m not completely certain of whether he had tenure or not. I don't think it matters to the case much, though. If he can show discrimination based on religion, it doesn't really matter whether it's an at-will contract or not.
