Fenton High School to have e-learning day Friday after threats made against school, official

A Bensenville high school embroiled in an investigation into a former staffer's conduct will have an e-learning day Friday, after threats were made for the second time in as many weeks.Fenton High School Board last week affirmed administrative leave

The Fenton High School District board voted unanimously to place now-former Superintendent Ongtengco on administrative leave, replacing him with interim Superintendent Samuel Bentsen. Bentsen's appointment was overshadowed by some jeers from the crowd. He is the current principal of Fenton High School, where the investigation originated into a now-former staffer who is accused of inappropriate conduct toward students for more than a decade.

Authorities at the CAC of DuPage County said they did investigate the allegations in 2016 and determined them to be unfounded."We should be here with our priorities being first for the support of every student that was victimized by this former teacher," board member Sylvia Hayde said."My priority is to maintain a positive learning environment even through this most difficult situation," Bentsen said.
