Indian River School District spokesperson Jennifer Troublefield sent the following statement Wednesday.
“Members of the Sussex Central High School staff were placed on administrative leave by the Indian River School District on Monday. This is an ongoing investigation, and state and federal laws protecting the privacy rights of employees prevent the district from commenting further at this time.”
Delaware State Police spokesman Leonard DeMalto said there is no investigation currently, but that police “may have more details later today.”
