A Lewiston elementary school teacher who was placed on administrative leave in the spring following allegations of abuse is no longer employed by the Lewiston School District.
According to the Lewiston Tribune, Superintendent Lance Hansen said Monday that Sheila Frei resigned and the Lewiston School Board didn’t renew her contract by the July 1 deadline.
Frei, who was teaching first grade at Camelot Elementary School, was placed on administrative leave March 31. The nature of the administrative leave was confidential.
However, during a Lewiston School Board meeting in April, about 50 people made comments for an hour about their concerns over the alleged behavior. Of those who were there, 16 people spoke about experiences from family members regarding allegations of physical abuse that left bruises and mental and emotional distress.
