"The student body is outraged that an incredible administrator, coach, and human being was fired solely because of his love and marriage for another human being. We are uniting in order to change the Catholic Church's opposition of gay marriage," the petition states.

Eastside closed early Thursday following the student protests, and cancelled Friday's classes due to predicted snow "and in light of the difficult day," according to The Seattle Times.
