Another teacher, Angela Burlaka, who Peoria police are recommending aggravated luring of a minor charges, surrendered her teaching license. Police records allege Burlaka sent sexually explicit videos to the same student. Data in police records indicate some messages were sent before the student turned 18. Burlaka was the COOP and Child Development teacher at the school.
Some community members, including school board members, have called for a third-party investigation into the handling of the allegations at the school as well as any violation of mandatory reporting laws.
