More details to this question:
I have been a preschool teacher with Scenic Preschool at 945 Scenic Highway from 07/2017-07/10/2018. I am well past my probationary period and have been an exemplary employee who has received both a raise and promotion without and zero write ups to date. On Wednesday, 07/11/2018, Around 2:00 pm I was called from my classroom to the office where I was taken outside by PPD and notified that Scenic Preschool was pursuing theft charges against myself and another employee regarding theft and destruction of property. The property in question was a spiral notebook and not of any value or requirement under the Deparment of Children and Families or Early Learning Coalition laws or policies. I was terminated from my position and have pending criminal charges. Do I have a solid case to pursue a lawsuit for wrongful termination, defamation of character, or other applicable means of litigation?

If you actually took somethng that did not belong to you? No, you are thief at that point and unfortunately you dont get to determine whether its a big deal or not, when the starting point is it wasnt yours to take.
