(Los Angeles, California) Last week, two male teachers at Miramonte Elementary School made the news for alleged lewd behavior toward children.
Martin Bernard Springer, 49, faces charges for alleged fondling of seven-year-old students. Mark Berndt, 61, allegedly took pictures as he spoon-fed semen to blind-folded students.
Reportedly, a "vigorous and fair investigation" is in process.
Meanwhile, due to the nature and extent of the lewd conduct charges, Los Angeles Schools Superintendent John Deasy has announced that the entire staff of the 1,500-student school will be replaced. Officials indicated that a drastic response is necessary to lift the cloud of suspicion on the school.
A couple of bad apples taint the entire bushel, so to speak.
