Jewel Redhead taught fifth grade—one hour per day of Bible study, the rest secular subjects—

at a Seventh Day Adventist school. In September of her fourth year, she told her principal she was pregnant. When Redhead told her principal she did not intend to marry the father, the school decided to terminate her (“pregnancy outside of marriage is evidence of fornication”). What legal arguments might Redhead make? How could the school defend itself

? What ethical issues arise when discrimination occurs in a private, religious organization?
