Rocco Criazzo resigned at a special meeting of the board of education Saturday.
Reached by phone Monday, Criazzo declined to comment specifically about the incident but said he plans to continue teaching elsewhere.
Superintendent Michael Notar said the district cannot release any comment or details of the April 25 incident until more information is obtained.
School officials told Brookfield police last week that Criazzo reportedly locked a student in a large equipment closet as a punishment for about 20 minutes after the student misbehaved.
Police Chief Dan Faustino said Friday the district would handle all disciplinary action through the board.
Criazzo said he has taken the remainder of his personal days until he is officially terminated at the end of the school year.

ReplyDeleteI'll never read a site like this again, now that I know how things can be twisted.
Ok, so you have one of the labels for this story as "arrested", but he was not arrested and police were not involved. And the news article is wrong and leaves out some very important facts. Wasn't a closet...wasn't locked in...wasn't 20 minutes.
