According to the first article, it was a school administrator:

Fired for ‘fornication’
A week later, she was notified that she was terminated. In a letter sent to her attorney, Edward Gay, last July, the school’s administrator, Julie Ennis, wrote:

“Jarretta was asked not to return because of a moral issue that was disregarded, namely fornication, sex outside of marriage. The employment application, which she filled out, clearly states that as a leader before our students we require all teachers to maintain and communicate the values and purpose of our school.”

That's from last July -- almost a year ago.

That's also in a letter to the teacher's attorney which presumably he has released to the press, not in a statement from the administration to the press.

What a mess. Why is it the school's business when they conceived?

What if this school receives federal funding? I know that some private and parochial schools receive school lunches and special ed teachers from the government. Would that impact anything?

It could but it's questionable, and it depends on whether the funding for those programs comes with the strings attached or not.
