LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A teacher at Moore High School has been reassigned to a non-school location while Jefferson County Public Schools (JCPS) conducts an investigation into a report made against him. Robert Gaskins, who teaches at the high school, has been temporarily removed from the classroom as part of the district’s standard procedure.
Carolyn Callahan, a spokesperson for JCPS, confirmed the move in a statement on Monday, explaining that Gaskins would not have contact with students during the investigation. The details of the report that prompted the investigation have not been disclosed, and the district has not shared additional information regarding the nature of the inquiry.
“This is standard procedure pending personnel decisions,” Callahan said. The district’s decision to place Gaskins at a non-school location follows typical protocol when dealing with investigations of this nature, ensuring that no further complications arise during the review process.
The investigation is still ongoing, and the district has not provided a timeline for when the review will be completed or when further updates will be available.
JCPS has a history of handling such matters with discretion, prioritizing the well-being of students and staff as they work through investigations. As more details emerge, the district is expected to release additional information regarding the status of the teacher and the investigation.
