Rights of Citizenship. Notwithstanding their employment, employees shall be entitled to full rights of citizenship, and no religious or political activities of any employee or the lack thereof shall be grounds for any discipline or discrimination with respect to the employment of such employee. Generally, the private and personal life and lawful activities of the employee are not within the appropriate concern or attention of the Board, unless they impact on the operation of the District. In the event any employee(s) files a grievance alleging discrimination under this provision of the Agreement, the Board may, at its discretion, refuse to process the grievance or void any arbitration award or settlement of the grievance, should the employee(s), or anyone on their behalf, pursue a lawsuit or administrative proceeding in any forum, relating to or arising out of the basic facts.
