Is it possible for a parent to get a teacher fired?
I am a teacher at a private school for students with disabilities. I am very passionate about what I do, and I enjoy working with the students. All the students have a one on one instructor with them. We work with a different student every day so the students can get to know us, and us them. The parents can come...

D J say: If the administration agrees with the parent or loves the parents wallet, you can get fired.

Paige say: I've heard it happens mostly in private schools. I would think they would have to have a VERY good reason to. Good luck! We need good teachers and passionate ones like you! I give you so much credit working with children of disabilities. It takes a very special person to do that!

This is not the first time she has gotten a teacher let go from the school.

Given what you posted, why would you even ask if she can do this? Not that I believe any of this is true.

Squid say: Yes of course. Especially at a private school where you don't have government employee status. All the parent has to do is convince the school to fire you. That could be as simple as a subtle hint, or as fun as threatening a lawsuit.

Hold on...you say yourself this isn't the first time. So why would you even need to ask if it's possible?
