Missouri's Parkway School District has placed a teacher on administrative leave and will not ask her to return next year after a student asked her about her former career as an aspiring porn star. School district spokesman Paul Tandy was quoted as saying, “We’re surprised, very surprised. At the same time we feel for her and her family. We do believe she has tried to move on with her life… Unfortunately, even though it happened 15 years ago, [the video] is still there.
 
Is it fair to use a mistake over 15 years ago to bar a teacher from the classroom?
