She doesn't look like a witch

A Salt Lake City "Teacher of the Year" is out of a job, her contract "not renewed" by the South Sevier school board, and at a school board meeting she is called a "witch," according to KUTV.

Erin Jensen is taking her case to court as religious discrimination.

Not as a witch. As a non-Mormon. The only two teachers not rehired were replaced by Mormons, so that the faculty is now 100% LDS.

At a school board meeting, the original minutes indicate a school board member said Ms. Jensen was a witch. Ms. Jensen says she isn't a witch, and she's never had anything to do with witchcraft.

Witchcraft charges seem to have been rumored around the school.

“My end of the hall was known as "hell's corner," because that's where the only two non-Mormon teachers in the school had their rooms. We were the two who were fired, and we were replaced by Mormon males,” said Jensen.

We think she has a good case.

1. It's a public school. Even in Utah the "all Mormon, all the time" schtick ain't gonna fly with the feds.

2. There are no allegations of anyone turning into a newt.

3. She doesn't look like a witch.

Of course, there are ways of discerning such things. They'll need a duck in a cage and a rather large set of scales.
