Dorothy Bond, the principal at Haywood High School in Brownsville, Tennessee, quit in the wake of the inflammatory remarks made as she reminded students to refrain from public displays of affection. She also allegedly told pregnant students that they had ruined their lives.
The principal threatened to expel gay students who showed affection for someone of the same sex, the American Civil Liberties Union said in a letter to the school board after several students and their families asked them to take action.
