A teacher lost her job after she clashed with administrators over a new security system at Maplewood Career Center in Ravenna Township, which bars people without an ID from getting past the school's security system. Now, she's alleging the system is discriminatory and restricts the public from attending board of education meetings in a locked building, which she said violates Ohio's open meetings laws. Jennifer Case, who taught English as a Second Language through the Aspire program, administered by Maplewood, parted ways with the district shortly before her contract expired June 30.
