What did the teacher in your high school get fired for?

Not high school but still…

The one teacher who managed to make history interesting to me. As far as I am concerned, he was one of the best teachers I had ever had. He was fired because, as the rumours said at the time, he was gay. That was ~1976 or thereabouts and being gay was not acceptable.

A few years earlier, another teacher was fired because he acted on my behalf…in my defense. I was bullied rather badly at the time and one of the girls didn’t know when to stop and kept on during class even after being warned. The teacher lost his cool, went to her desk and slammed her head onto the desk hard enough that her skin broke and had to be stitched. Needless to say that was the last time we saw him.
