In a civics lesson that his students will never forget, Pennsylvania high school teacher Kurt Gladfelter took off his mask, and lost his job.

“Compliance is not always the right thing, and this is wrong,” Gladfelter told The Epoch Times in a phone interview. “To do this to kids—it’s not worth the cost.”
