Vulgarity will get you in trouble in any workplace situation but especially when you are working with children. A warning would probably have been appropriate except that the president was the target of the gesture.

The bus driver is my hero but what a price to have to pay.

I wish I could be as outspoken on my job but I think I'd be in very hot water if I expressed my feelings about decisions that are being made regarding education. It takes alot of courage to become a whistle blower which is about the same as giving someone the finger.
