Haley Beck is one of the two teachers of Centennial High School in the Peoria unified school district, in Illinois, who has been accused of sexual misconduct with a student. Angela Burlaka, a 47-year-old teacher in the same school, has been accused of sexually misbehaving with the same student as well.
A spokesperson from the school district said “The Peoria Unified School District and Governing Board take all allegations involving student safety extremely seriously. At the time the concerns were reported, the information available did not meet the legal threshold for reasonable suspicion of abuse, nor was there corroborating evidence to support such a determination. The District responded in accordance with Governing Board policy, applicable law, and established procedures. Following a review of the matter, appropriate actions were taken to address the concerns raised. Due to pending litigation, the District is unable to provide additional details. We remain committed to maintaining a safe, supportive, and responsive environment for all students and staff.”

While Burlaka gave up her Arizona teaching certificates, Beck did not and the Peoria Unified School District Governing Board decided unanimously last week that she'd be fired from her position.

Beck and the student had exchanged over 4,000 texts about sexual and illegal activity, over a period of six weeks, as per investigators. She had reportedly written a handwritten note to the student which read “for this ‘relationship’ being extremely wrong, I feel like we have really made the most out of it.” It added “there is truly no other student (I know, so wrong) that I’d want to do all this with.”
Burlaka, meanwhile, had been with the school for 25 years and has been accused of recording naked videos of herself where she said the student's name. The videos had ended up on the student's phone.
