No criminal charges will be filed against Rocky River High School staffers after two teachers were captured on video talking inappropriately about a female student.
Rocky River Police said its investigation yielded 鈥渋nsufficient evidence.鈥�
The school鈥檚 internal investigation is ongoing.
The police department released the Google Classroom video that led to six high school staff members being placed on administrative leave.
The video, which was turned in to the school, shows two teachers talking about another teacher's claims that he took a photo of a female student鈥檚 genitals. In the tape, one teacher said he blocked the colleague on his phone so as not to receive the picture. That same teacher also described the student as 鈥渘ot much of a student, but a nice enough girl,鈥� and 鈥渞eally frigging... put together.鈥�
This is the video that prompted an investigation of Rocky River High School teachers, released and redacted by Rocky River Police.
Rocky River Police said despite the video, 鈥渘o evidence of photos of students or inappropriate discussions about students were contained in the text message thread among the teachers.鈥�
Rocky River City Schools Superintendent Michael Shoaf released a video statement Thursday blasting the teachers.
鈥淚鈥檓 disgusted, I鈥檓 shocked, and as the father of a teenage daughter in this district, I鈥檓 angry,鈥� Shoaf said in the video. 鈥淲hat was stated by these staff members was not only inappropriate and unprofessional, it was offensive.鈥�
In a statement released March 23, the school district said it would follow the board of education鈥檚 policy for internal investigations.
鈥淭his includes interviews, review of pertinent materials as well as consideration of any new facts which may come to light. During this process, the district has made the decision to place two additional staff members on administrative leave. Currently, there are six individuals on such leave,鈥� the statement reads.
The staff members will stay on paid administrative leave until the investigation is completed.
