The school's principal has also been placed on leave, and is slated for termination following a 10-day notice which had been previously sent, according to local outlet Fox 8.
Dr. Jeff Graham, CEO and Superintendent of the school district, commented on the issue:
"Any infringement upon the dignity and respect of our students will not be tolerated. Our students deserve staff members who are able to make good decisions in all situations — and any staff member who is unable to deliver on that promise is unwelcome in our schools."
"We will not let the actions of two people define us when there are so many wonderful things happening in our classrooms, schools and community."
