"Jennifer Fasulo, a Spanish teacher at Charles W. Baker High School in Baldwinsville, a Syracuse suburb, was placed on a paid leave of absence on Jan. 30, just weeks after she offered to help students establish a Club America, the high school division of the Charlie Kirk co-founded conservative group, her supporters say."
""The district can confirm that a staff member has been placed on paid administrative leave while a matter is under review. We are following established administrative and legal procedures, and we are unable to comment further or share additional details at this time," the Baldwinsville Central School informed parents in a Feb. 10 letter."
""We believe no educator should be punished for their personal beliefs," according to the appeal, which has more than 2,100 signatures as of Thursday. "This teacher is being targeted not because of her performance, but for her political beliefs," Club America President Jerry Dygert said at a Feb. 9 board meeting."
Jennifer Fasulo, a Spanish teacher at Charles W. Baker High School in Baldwinsville, was placed on paid administrative leave on Jan. 30 after she offered to help students establish a Club America chapter affiliated with Turning Point USA. The district confirmed that a staff member is on paid administrative leave while a matter is under review and said it cannot share additional details. Students organized a petition with more than 2,100 signatures and spoke at a Feb. 9 board meeting alleging spiritual and political discrimination and warning that removing Fasulo harms the club’s mission of civil discourse. Some parents opposed her involvement and described Turning Point as "terrifying," expressing concern about its influence on boys and young men.
