The Redwood City School District just issued this statement regarding the status of the Atherton math teacher who prompted a frightened 911 call by his eighth-grade student after he angrily toppled a desk — possibly accidentally — in class:

The Redwood City School District has concluded its investigation of allegations made against a Selby Lane School teacher by a student during a 9-1-1 call on March 1. The district conducted a full investigation.

“The investigation is merely the first step,” said Superintendent Jan Christensen. “We must now decide what action, if any, is warranted by the results of our investigation.”

Christensen added, “The District understands that the media and the public are very interested in this case, but we cannot disclose any further information without potentially violating student privacy rights or teacher due process rights.”
