Right, because its up to men and organizations to determine which sins are worse than others, and what the scale is in general. This school had no problem hiring a divorced, single mother. They had no problem with her being a role model knowing that situation. But when she got pregnant, then there was a problem. It shows them to be hypocrites.
Maybe, but perhaps having a fiance in the wings was good enough for them to overlook the previous divorce, which was before her employment here, and events that normally would not be known to children/students and thus, affect them. But then she pulled another boner, one that is too difficult to hide.

Maybe they were cutting her a break and following the Bible and showing her mercy when they hired her. Only to regret it when she later ended up preggers.
Who knows?
Not necessarily. A hypocrite is one who acts in a manner in opposition to his/her own stated beliefs/principles. Since we don't know what the school teaches concerning divorce, it would be incorrect to label them as hypocrites over that issue. Also, even the Jesus did not label divorce as a sin - it was divorce and remarriage that was the sin, because it caused the participants to be engaged in adultery.
And what if the divorce occurred before the participant became a Christian? What if it occurred for reasons of abuse, adultery or abandonment? Would they still be hypocrites for hiring her?
