    From the Fulton County Schools Archives!

    How interesting!  Thanks for sharing!

    Yes! Situations like that are not that long ago.   Just a day or two ago someone in my S.E.  community told me she was not able to get a job in our district because her husband worked here. That would have been in the 1970's.  Up until that time pregnant women could not teach.   That had to do more with the supt. at the time than a law.
