Teacher was fired for refusing to call children by their preferred pronouns

Quote: A substitute teacher in a school district in Cheyenne, Wyoming, was fired from two different schools for refusing to call students who identified as trans by their chosen names.

While teaching a classroom at East High School in March, Gene Clemetson was approached by a student he described as a boy identifying as girl. This student asked him to be called by a different name than was on the attendance sheet.

I said to him, very politely, I have to go by the name on the roster,' Clemetson recounted to Cowboy State Daily.

After they were not able to resolve the issue, the student left and returned with another teacher who told Clemetson that the student's parents approved of their child being called by this alternate name.

'Well that's great, but again, if I'm calling the attendance, if I'm calling the roll, I'm going by the names officially registered with the district,' Clemetson recalled saying.


The student called another teacher who tried to argue the parents of the students gave their permission to be called by another name. The student is a boy identifying as a girl.

Then as the teacher wasn't going to change his mind the Principal stepped in and said the teacher is not welcome back to the school after all he did. Then he was escorted out of the school by the Vice-Principal.

And that's the second time the teacher was fired for the same reason! A similar incident occurred during the spring semester at another school in the same district, Triumph High School. The Principal asked him to leave the premises because he wasn't obviously fit to teach.

I wonder if the education authorities should take the matter further. The teacher refused to call a boy who identified as a girl with another name and a girl who identified as a boy with another name. These teachers deserve not only to be fired but they shouldn't be anywhere near children, let alone be their teachers and mentors. Shame of him! He should be banned from the profession.
