OSKALOOSA, Iowa —
An Oskaloosa High School teacher has been placed on administrative leave after a provocative social media post about the shooting death of Republican political activist Charlie Kirk caused disruption at the school.
Oskaloosa School Superintendent Mike Fisher said, "This has created substantial material disruption to our learning environment. The last 12 hours."
Fisher confirmed that the trouble began late Wednesday afternoon when high school art teacher Matt Kargol posted on social media, saying "one nazi down," in response to Kirk's death, prompting complaints from upset residents.
Adam Fincher, an Oskaloosa resident, expressed his disapproval, saying, "To be able to post stuff like that is just inappropriate and not called for. Definitely shouldn't have been done.
