(The Center Square) - The U.S. Department of Education has opened a Title IX investigation into the Los Angeles Unified School District over sexual misconduct allegations. The department contends the district is reassigning teachers accused of such misconduct to other schools, instead of removing from their position. But the district told The Center Square Wednesday that "reassignment" means sending the teachers home during the investigations.
