The Delaware Human Relations Commission is investigating an allegation that a teacher in the Indian River School District told her fifth-grade class that she would not vote for presidential candidate Barack Obama because he is "scary" and because he is a Muslim.
The complaint was lodged by the mother of a 10-year-old girl, who said the teacher made the comments prior to the mock primary on Super Tuesday, Feb. 5, at Lord Baltimore Elementary School.
Obama is a Christian. The student is a Muslim.
The school district has released a statement saying it has conducted a thorough investigation.
They say they've resolved the issue after meeting with the mother and the teacher who allegedly made the comments.
