SUMMARY OF INCIDENT:
A teacher at the Twinfield Union School in Marshfield is scheduled to be arraigned next month on a disorderly conduct charge arising from an incident that occurred last week at the school.
VSP’s investigation began at about 8:30 a.m. Sept. 10, 2024, when troopers were contacted regarding the incident, which was reported to have occurred in a classroom of the school on Sept. 5. Through investigation, VSP determined that Kathleen Wheelock, an educator at Twinfield Union, used a permanent marker to draw around the throat of a juvenile student after that student used a permanent marker on a classroom whiteboard surface.
The student was not injured during the incident and left the classroom to report it to school administrators. Following investigation, VSP issued Wheelock a citation on a charge of aggravated disorderly conduct. She is scheduled to appear for arraignment at 8:30 a.m. Oct. 3, 2024, in the Criminal Division of Vermont Superior Court in Barre.
No additional information is available from VSP at this time. The affidavit of probable cause will be filed with the court and made public following Wheelock’s arraignment. Questions regarding her employment status should be directed to school officials.
