Two teachers at Olympic Heights Community High School in suburban Boca Raton are out of a job after “an inappropriate physical relationship while on the school’s campus.”

That’s what principal Dave Clark said in a call to parents.

He called the conduct unacceptable and said it does not reflect the work by the other excellent teachers at the school.

 
Text of phone call to parents:
 
Hello Parents,
 
I would like to make you aware of an incident that occurred at our school that you may hear of in the coming days.
 
The District recently became aware of misconduct involving two teachers at Olympic Heights Community High School. It was discovered that two teachers were engaged in an inappropriate physical relationship while on the school’s campus. 
 
This conduct on campus is unacceptable and not reflective of the work done each day by the excellent teachers at Olympic Heights High School, or in our School District. 
 
Their actions constitute a serious violation of the District’s Code of Ethics policy related to professional conduct. 
 
The teachers are no longer employed with the District. 
 
I wanted you to hear this information directly from me and assure you that this particular issue is resolved.
