Allegations lead to suspension of Basehor-Linwood teacher

May 28, 2009

A Basehor-Linwood High School teacher has been suspended as a result of allegations of an inappropriate relationship with a student.

The 44-year-old teacher's May 20 suspension was related to an investigation that involves the teacher and a 16-year-old student.

Basehor Police Chief Lloyd Martley said the department was still in the preliminary stages of investigating the misconduct, which allegedly happened during this school year.

Martley said police had been conducting interviews and were hoping to bring charges to Leavenworth County within a week.

Point of View

Do you plan on attending the St. Patrick’s festivities Saturday in Tonganoxie?

I like seeing Tongie being festive and all dressed up for the occasion. Along with my family, I will be attending the parade, watching the Wild Women of the Frontier, snarfing up some corn beef and cabbage and listening to the pipes. I’m only Irish on St. Paddy’s Day, and sometimes the weekends before and after. The rest of the time, I’m Scottish and both cultures regard pipes as heavenly. To me, it is also a celebration of spring’s imminent arrival, and the green color carries that message, too.
