Lawyer up!

They already said staff couldn’t be associated with someone engaging in those activities. That means you.

They will be looking for any excuse possible to fire you in the coming days/weeks. Get setup for a payday bc it’s private school not public. They will pay whatever it takes to not have it tarnish their image. But will try to bully you out w/o a lawyer on your side

Edit: OP please call out sick tomorrow and meet with an employment attorney. It’s for your own good and better to have setup and not need it than to not have it and need it.

If it's a Church owned school, then they can be as hateful as they want. If it's public school then lawyering up would be a good idea. Also, the ACLU may be interested in helping out if it's public school since it appears you are being punished by association.

In addition, ask for the employee handbook that outlines the offense. If they don't have it written down, then it's a legal issue, even for a Church.

You dont need legal grounds for termination in a right to work state(i dont know where this is), it is at will employment. Find another job, why do you want to work there.

There's no grounds for a lawsuit unless there's a breach of contract.

"right to work" means you can't be forced to join a union to get a job.

You are right that it's at-will employment, in any state but Montana.

This whole thread is nuts. OP doesn't have any legal protection.

Clarification: 

Right to work: the conservative name for not having to join a union

At will: termination without cause
