Teachers who had been reassigned return to Los Angeles elementary school

From The Los Angeles Times: Miramonte Elementary School in the Los Angeles Unified District has begun the 2012-13 year with the return of most of the teaching staff that was forced to leave the school in the wake of a sexual abuse scandal.
