"One of the two Peabody Public School teachers placed on leave following the shooting death of far-right activist Charlie Kirk is no longer employed, the district confirmed. The teacher, who worked at Peabody Veterans Memorial High School, "will not be returning to their position," Superintendent Josh Vadala said in a statement. The investigation into the other teacher "is still active and ongoing," he said."
"Previously, Peabody Public Schools put two teachers on leave "for alleged violations of district policies and procedures, including but not limited to inappropriate social media posts following the death of Charlie Kirk." At least five investigations have been launched into Massachusetts educators over online reactions to Kirk's death, including in the Wachusett, Framingham, and Sharon school districts. This teacher appears to be the first to be no longer employed following an investigation into their apparent social media posts about Kirk."

At least five investigations into Massachusetts educators over social media reactions to Kirk's death are underway.
