Florida teacher fired for wearing bikini on Howard Stern Show
Perhaps we need a "Teacher fired for spurious reason catch-all"?
A Southington teacher who appeared on the Howard Stern Show no longer has a job at Thalberg Elementary School.Second-grade teacher Marie Jarry took part in an Ugliest Guy and Hottest Wife contest on Stern's show. She and her husband won $5,000.
"I can't believe she would go on TV and do that when she is a second-grade teacher," said parent Dean LaPoint. "It just doesn't make sense."
The school replaced Jarry after pictures of her in a bikini appeared on HowardStern.com.
The Jarrys competed against two other couples and during the contest, Marie made sexual comments about her husband.
"They work hard during the school day and what they do on their own time is their business, but because of the nature of the Howard Stern show, the board was concerned," said Liz Francis, parent of a Thalberg Elementary School student.
Eyewitness News reporter Erika Arias talked to one parent who said that Jarry was told to resign.
The Southington School wouldn't say whether Jarry was forced out.
Jarry did not return calls seeking comment.
And to think I used to believe Florida was a cool place where everyone wore bikini all day.
"The trouble with fighting for human freedom is that one spends most of one's time defending scoundrels. For it is against scoundrels that oppressive laws are first aimed, and oppression must be stopped at the beginning if it is to be stopped at all."
I totally support this. It's wholly disrespectful to all the 2nd graders at her school who watch the Howard Stern show! She should have her education license revoked!
Maybe the school board was disappointed that HowardStern.com did not display pics of that teacher without a bikini?

There must be a teacher overpopulation in the US because they seem to get fired left and right.

Howard Stern is only on during the week, right? Maybe she called in sick and got busted

She should be barred from ever teaching again. How dare she have breasts near children!?

What they don't mention is that she also practices wizardry, which we know is a big no-no in Florida.

Her husband's the wizard. How else could a schlub like him nab a hot piece like her?

Nerds!
I think its totally inappropriate to impose occupation related rules to a persons private life unnecessarily. If she advertised it at school or anything like that then I could under stand but what probably happened is some womens husband found it and told her. She happened to have a kid at the school and an axe to grind.
Remember, this happened in Florida. Nothing else needs to be said.

Yeah, you'd never hear about this happening elsewhere.
