Instead, officials said, “a few seconds” of porn were displayed on the screen.
Fulton County Schools investigated the teacher, who eventually submitted a letter of resignation, Channel 2 reported.
“It is our expectation that teachers and staff maintain a safe and appropriate instructional environment for all students,” a Fulton County Schools official said in a statement to the news station. “Our focus will continue to be student achievement and the safety or our students and staff.”
The teacher’s name was not released.
