A Davis School District special education teacher has resigned after being accused of drinking alcohol at school. The teacher, who worked at Vista Education Campus, allegedly consumed 24 ounces of hard seltzer during the school day and appeared impaired. Colleagues reported the incident, and district security removed the teacher from campus for alcohol testing. A non-verbal student under the teacher's supervision was found with the container's straw in her mouth, raising concerns about potential alcohol ingestion. The teacher was placed on administrative leave and later resigned in lieu of termination. The incident has sparked concerns about transparency and oversight, with the student's family criticizing the district for not informing them about the incident until days later.
