BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — North Dakota's teacher licensing board has decided to take no disciplinary action against state Superintendent of Public Instruction Kirsten Baesler.
Baesler was charged in February with simple assault in an alleged domestic dispute with her then-fiance Todd Tschosik. The Education Standards and Practices Board in March postponed discussing possible disciplinary action until the case was resolved, and prosecutors late last month dropped the charge for lack of evidence.
The Bismarck Tribune reports (http://bit.ly/1EKUyYo ) that the board on Thursday voted unanimously against disciplining either Baesler or Tschosik, who teaches at three Bismarck schools. Tschosik is on probation after pleading guilty to a driving under the influence charge in December, and he's on an improvement plan following absences at work.
