Poland teacher resigns; investigation probes relationship with student
POLAND — A Poland Seminary High School teacher resigned amid an investigation into his alleged relationship with a student.
Troy Massey, 41, of Boardman, was a 19-year teacher who taught physics and was the cross country and track coach. While his resignation is effective to when his contract expires Aug. 29, 2008, “all active services and duties” ended Monday, the resignation said.
School officials began investigating Massey in September.
The probe centered on a 2007 graduate and a complaint initiated by her parent, according to the reporting forms submitted to the Ohio Department of Education. Superintendent Dr. Robert Zorn declined to characterize the nature of the alleged relationship.
