Peabody Public Schools is the latest school district in Massachusetts to put teachers on leave because of social media posts they allegedly made in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination.
Superintendent Josh Vadala said two high school teachers were placed on leave "for alleged violations of district policies and procedures, including but not limited to social media posts following the death of Charlie Kirk."
The school did not go into detail about what the teachers allegedly posted on social media.
"This matter is currently under investigation," Vadala said in a statement. "We take this very seriously and will respond appropriately."
A number of workers across the country have been fired or placed on leave for their comments after the conservative political activist was fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University on Wednesday.
