Clarita Zeppie, who retired in 2012, said she had known Carin Mehler and Gail Topol for at least seven years. They were two of the four teachers who were accused of improper coaching of students after a parent told current Principal Angela Garcia that her two kids received improper coaching from the teachers, LoHud reported.

Zeppie said she was shocked to find out that the teachers were reassigned after interviewing only the students and not the two teachers, LoHud.com said.
