The school said in a statement that read in part, "The district is currently investigating a matter involving an employee at the junior-senior high school." The statement went on to say there would be no further comment since it is a personnel matter.

At the beginning of Wednesday night’s Board of Education meeting, BOE President James Governali addressed the incident.
"I want the community to know that a complaint was made yesterday about an employee,” said Governali. “The employee was administratively reassigned off-campus yesterday morning as the district looks into this matter."
He went on to say the board cannot comment further on personnel matters.
