Brownsville teacher settles suit over photo with stripper

A Fayette County teacher who was suspended for 30 days without pay because pictures showing her with a stripper were posted on Facebook has settled her case for $10,000.
Ginger D’Amico, who teaches high school Spanish in the Brownsville Area School District, also will have her disciplinary record cleared and be given back pay for wages lost during her suspension.
Ms. D’Amico hosted a bachelorette party, including a stripper, for a fellow teacher in December. Another school district employee, who attended the party, posted pictures from the party on Facebook, though they remained there for less than a day.
However, according to the American Civil Liberties Union, which represented Ms. D’Amico, she learned in January that she would receive a 30-day suspension without pay. Other school district employees who attended the party received a disciplinary letter in their files, but no suspension. Those letters are the subject of arbitration.
