I can just see it now!  Ben Stien should RUN (not walk) to get this science teacher's story to use in the next Expelled movie.

There is an atheist plot to Expell him for his sincerely held beliefs that he should be allowed to burn the sign of the cross into his student's skin.

The fax stated, "We are religious people, but we were offended when Mr. Freshwater burned a cross onto the arm of our child. This was done in science class in December 2007, where an electric shock machine was used to burn our child. The burn was severe enough that our child awoke that night with severe pain, and the cross remained there for several weeks. ... We have tried to keep this a private matter and hesitate to tell the whole story to the media for fear that we will be retaliated against." (quote taken fom second link.)

Christian (TM) Students are rallying to support the teacher and his right to "express himself"

Some Christian parents would rather he not teach his religion (in other words Christianity (TM)) to their children.

The schools position is that it is because of a larger pattern of disturbing behavior.
