HAMDEN, Conn. (AP) — A teacher at a college preparatory school has been placed on paid administrative leave following allegations she had an inappropriate relationship with a high school student.
The New Haven Register reports (http://cour.at/1oizWk4) Superintendent of Schools Garth Harries confirmed the teacher had been removed from Engineering and Science University Magnet School. He declined to name the teacher.
