Brooklyn school faces "naked" controversy with 3rd teacher

from ktla.com:

"NEW YORK -- James Madison High School's sexy shenanigans just got sleazier.

A third teacher at the Brooklyn school is being investigated for having personal relations with a male student -- just one day after news broke that two other teachers were caught "undressed" in the back of a classroom.

Allison Musacchio, a social studies teacher, is under investigation for having an inappropriate relationship with a male student.

The Midwood school first learned about the affair in March, after a female student saw her ex-boyfriend's phone number on the teacher's cell phone.

Officials later found more than 200 texts and calls between the teacher and the male student. Musacchio was banned from the classroom, after school officials determined that that amount of contact was inappropriate.

Musacchio, 31, was also investigated for having a fling with a second student, but the investigation was dropped after authorities learned the boy was of legal age and was no longer at the school.

Chatter ran rampant Wednesday after a janitor allegedly caught French teacher Cindy Mauro, 33, and married Spanish instructor Alini Brito, 29, "naked" in an empty classroom. The janitor mistook the pair for students, and reported them to school authorities.

The school issued a statement confirming that the school was investigating "an incident of employee misconduct while the school was having an event in the assembly during the evening of Nov. 20."

In a bizarre twist, Musacchio just became a member of a Facebook group set up by students wanting to talk about the language teachers' alleged romance.

Lawyers for Mauro and Brito deny the allegations.

"They are both exemplary teachers whose reputations and careers are being irreparably harmed by unfounded rumors and innuendo," a statement said.

The pair are expected to address the allegations "in an appropriate forum."

Meanwhile, Brito and Mauro -- who have tenure -- have been temporarily reassigned to what other teachers call "the rubber room" -- a series of buildings scattered throughout the city with other teachers who face disciplinary charges. The investigation is ongoing, school officials say."
