A teacher who was arrested on suspicion of having sexual misconduct with a student has resigned, according to a Wednesday social media post from the Iberia R-5 School District.
The Board of Education met in a closed session on Tuesday and voted to accept Casey Mason’s resignation, which is retroactive to May 12.
Mason was arrested on May 12, but Miller County Prosecutor Robert Seek opted not to file charge, claiming it did not apply because the alleged victim was 18 years old, previous reporting shows.
The school at the time had stated Mason resigned.
The Wednesday social media post from the school said it could not discuss the details of the Board’s action because it was considered “confidential personnel information.”
