INDEPENDENCE, Mo. – A part-time band teacher and a band assistant at St. Thomas More School have been suspended after allegations of “suspicious behavior” surfaced.

A letter from the principal to parents did not detail the allegations.

According to Principal Brian Borgmeyer, Independence police notified the school that they were investigating the teacher as of March 3. The school got a separate complaint on March 6 about the assistant.

The police investigation ended without charges being filed against the instructor, but the school is doing their own internal investigation.

Kansas City police are still reviewing the allegations against the assistant.
