Ohio Teacher Files Federal Lawsuit Against Public School District

In a move to preserve our Christian culture and religious freedoms in America, an Ohio teacher has filed a lawsuit against the Mount Vernon City School District in Mount Vernon, Ohio. The District continues to be the center of controversy over issues of religious freedom.

John Freshwater, a 24-year veteran teacher, filed suit June 9 in U.S. District Court against the district, district administrators, and other parties for violations of free speech and equal protection under the U.S. Constitution.

Freshwater also cited violations of Ohio public policy, religious harassment, retaliation, conspiracy, defamation, and breach of contract.
