Linda Janack teaches reading at Edgemont Elementary School in Van Buren Township. An investigation began after several parents complained about her involvement with a site called Hot For Teachers.
The school board held a meeting Monday night to discuss the situation further. Board members said the decision to put Janack on administrative leave was made to protect students.
"We didn't want her in the classroom around kids at this point," Van Buren Schools Superintendent Peter Kudlak said. "So that was part of the administrative leave, is to make sure she is not on property or around the students."
Janack will remain on leave pending the outcome of the investigation.
School officials will discuss her employment at the board meeting next month.
