On one hand it's refreshing that they're treating the "sins" the same way. Inherently there's nothing more or less moral (from their point of view) about having sex 3 weeks before your wedding or having a one night stand.
I wonder how the news was spread, this is one of those things that everyone would have "figured out" one way or the other. Otherwise well liked teachers don't just disappear with no reason, and a small, insular school culture would have found out. Announcing it though? Inappropriate.
(I think the whole thing's inappropriate, I just think they probably had the right to do it.)

Agreed, there's no actual moral difference, but most of the time, IMO, issues like this are more about the image of the institution/school/organization than the actual sin. From that viewpoint, it would make sense if this were a pregnancy that was know by all to be the result of a less stable set of circumstances to take action...though like I said, even then firing seems over the top.
I would've definitely just said the baby was three weeks early. That happens all the time, but I understand that she was caught off guard, because who has the balls to ask you if your baby was conceived before the wedding night or not?
