The report concluded the allegation the two had kissed could not be confirmed but recommended E be taken out of Cummins' class. E should be told to bring anxiety issues to counselors and administration in the future, it said.
Four days later, an official reprimand issued to Cummins indicated that E had been in his classroom for a half-hour earlier that day.

Whatley said that despite his Feburary 6 letter to Marczak, school officials did not do enough to keep Cummins away from E and, at one point, placed E in in-school suspension when they learned the two remained in contact.
Anthony Thomas was upset to learn Cummins was not only still pursuing a relationship with his daughter, but also still teaching, the attorney said.

The way I understand it on the 25th of january they were seen kissing. On the 26th investigation by school launched. Both denied inappropriate contact. School decided not enough evidence to suspend the adult male teacher. Student and teacher told to stay away from one another, ET removed from teacher's class. School receives report that ET was seen again in his classroom with him and ET is placed on in-house suspension.
Teacher is "reprimanded".but continues to be employed actively teaching there. Nothing further is done with teacher until she is abducted by him, at which time he is suspended from his job. Once Amber Alert is issued he is fired from said job.
