The Mexico School District has placed a Mexico Middle School teacher on administrative leave after the district was made aware of an incident.
Very few details have been released, however in an email sent out to Mexico Middle School parents and guardians this (Tuesday) afternoon, Mexico Schools Superintendent Melissa Chastain says as a matter of protocol, the teacher was immediately placed on paid administrative leave.
Placement on a leave of absence is not disciplinary action or indication of guilt or innocence. It is standard procedure in such cases and allows time for a thorough review of the facts.
This is a sensitive situation and any allegations involving district students are given our highest priority. However, at this time as is board policy, we are not permitted to discuss personnel or student information.
Mexico Public Schools remains committed to protecting our students and ensuring that they have a safe learning environment. Please know we appreciate your cooperation and support as we continue to work together to create a culture where every student feels valued and respected.
The Mexico Ledger will bring you more details as soon as they become available.
