The investigation began when a teacher complained about comments she said Gedney made after observing her at work in her classroom. “This was a discussion about my observation, my evaluation and he starts talking about being honored if I was his first,” the teacher told the investigator. “This is sick.” Later the same day, the teacher said she had another interaction with Gedney. “I really need to kiss up to this attractive lady because I need something from you,” the teacher said Gedney told her. The teacher told the investigator she wondered whether Gedney was “really focused on my teaching or something else” and said it made her feel sick to her stomach.
