You are confusing private with public, she is being paid by the school district on a contract so these are state funds paid for by taxpayers. All contractors for state and federal need to comply with their regulations and laws, none of which is giving up free speech.
Its unheard other than some nebulous publication posted called worldeer.com which doesn't seem to exist. Two states have already lost in court, I expect more so I am going to go with the court decision. Besides if what you indicated is true then why ask allegiance to Israel.
I'm not familiar with the local State law, but knowing my Texas, they've screwed it up somehow. As far as complying with anti-boycott provisions, we have to do it all the time. My company works extensively in the Mid East and we constantly redline contracts and PO's to remove boycott language to be in compliance with Federal Law.
I'm not down with this. Why does any American have to sign a pro Israel Oath? He shouldn't have been fired for that.
If it were a private school? That could have been a requirement. For a public entity? No. Compelled speech is unconstitutional. SCOTUS has already ruled on that in a case in which some public school students refused to salute and pledge allegiance to the US Flag.
Texas is not mentioned in there complaint. Only the school district.
By denying herself to renew her contract by not agreeing to the scope of the new contract, since her old one had been fulfilled.
Do you understand contract law as opposed to employee?
Have you ever been self employed and had to draw up a sub-contract?
Do you understand that the contract was with a government entity? And that government entity was violating her rights with the terms of the contract?

Yes, I was thinking public. Private school is another matter.

If that is true then why is their federal legislation pending specifically spelling out Israel, why do these states find it necessary to do the same. I just don't see this as being legal when using taxpayer funds, Similar legislation in Kansas and Arizona have already lost in court.

It's not an "if it's true" thing. The law is a fact and has existed for over 40 years.
The U.S. has an established policy of opposing restrictive trade practices or boycotts fostered or imposed by foreign countries against other countries friendly to the U.S. This policy is implemented through the anti-boycott provisions of the Export Administration Act of 1979 (EAA)—enforced by the U.S. Department of Commerce— and through a 1977 amendment to the Tax Reform Act of 1976—enforced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
Part 760 of the EAR implements the EAA’s anti-boycott provisions. U.S. persons are prohibited from taking certain actions with the intent to comply with, further, or support an unsolicited foreign boycott. Prohibitions include:
Refusing to do business with a boycotted or blacklisted entity
Discriminating against, or agreeing to discriminate against, any U.S. person on the basis of race, religion, sex, or national origin
Furnishing information about business relationships with a boycotted country or a blacklisted entity In addition, the EAR requires a U.S. person to notify the U.S. Department of Commerce if he or she receives a request to comply with an unsanctioned foreign boycotted country or a blacklisted entity.
In addition, the EAR requires a US person to notify the U.S. Department of Commerce if he or she receives a request to comply with an unsanctioned foreign boycott.
