(Salem School District)
A special education teacher at Salem School who had previously been placed on administrative leave, has been fired and identified by the district Thursday afternoon. According to a statement released to KCE and parents, the teacher, Kayla Fasko, has been fired today after she was discovered “under the influence of an illicit substance” on October 3, 2024. Additionally, the district has submitted procedural documents required by the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI) to review her teaching license.
“We take this matter very seriously and remain committed to ensuring accountability, safety, and integrity within our district. We deeply appreciate the quick response and vigilance of our staff in reporting concerns, which allowed the Board to take appropriate action.
While we know it can be frustrating that we cannot share more details because it is an ongoing investigation and a personnel matter, we want you to know that we are fully cooperating with the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Department. Thank you for your continued dedication to our students and your support in maintaining a positive learning environment. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us,” said Superintendent Dr. Vicki King and Board President Dr. Ted Goergen.
According to the call log, the Sheriff’s Department was dispatched to the school, located at 8828 Antioch Rd in Salem, at about 4:24 p.m. for a call for service that dispatchers classified as a “mental health call.”
KCE has reached out to the Sheriff’s Department and will share more as we learn details.

Troll on, troll
I had the unfortunate experience of working with Kayla Fasko. Toxic person. I hope she never gets to work with children again.
America is the greatest place on earth hahahahahah
You’re right, It sure is! 👍🏻
I want to compliment the Police Department and Officers for their professionalism.
It is unfortunate for the children of this school who could have suffered.
The way the investigation was handled was consistent with the enforcement of the law and constitutional for the teacher.
Additionally, the officer who communicated her offense, was not judgmental nor accusatory, acting in the best interest of the offender.
He did not belittle her or say anything to make her feel uncomfortable. He did however help her to be more cooperative in understanding the situation and her actions.
His compassion for the field of Special Education was evident and eased the pressure of her behavior.
It is a very difficult task to teach students with learning difficulties.
Thank police officers.
Thank you for the compassion.
