2nd CCSD Teacher Murdered In A Month

A second CCSD teacher has been murdered within about a month in Las Vegas.
From the Las Vegas Sun: The Clark County Coroner's Office said Wednesday that Franta's body was found Sunday behind a grocery store in the northwest valley.
The coroner determined she died of asphyxiation and ruled her death a homicide. Her body was found behind the Albertsons store at Tenaya Way and Craig Road.
Metro Police
began asking for the public's help Tuesday in finding Franta, who taught at Irwin and Susan Molasky Junior High School. Police said she left her home about 7 p.m. Saturday in the 4300 block of Cranbrook Circle, near Torrey Pines Drive and Harmon Avenue, and didn't return.

On October 20, 2010, a science teacher from El Dorado, Tim VanDerbosch, died after he was robbed, knocked out and the run over by a car.

And how did CCSD let's employees know bout these tragedies? They didn't. No even a district wide e-mail of condolence. Most CCSD staff had to hear about this through the media. Very pathetic, CCSD administration.
When I worked at other school districts, if a staff member died, there would a district wide e-mail and follow up e-mails with information about the funeral and how to donate money to the family. or even off a condolence letter/e-mail, saying something to the effect: We at CCSD are saddened to hear about the death of_____. Our condolences to the family and her friends. We will keep you updated to the date and time of the funeral and where donations can be made.
Now, CCSD administrators, is that so hard? No, it's not.
R.I.P Marybeth Franta and God bless your family and friends.

Update: The husband of the school teacher was arrested for killing Mrs. Franta. From the Sun:
Metro Police on Wednesday arrested the husband of a Las Vegas teacher whose body was found behind a grocery store this past weekend in the northwest valley.
Mark Douglas Franta was taken into custody at 4:55 p.m. and charged with murder in connection with the death of 49-year-old Marybeth Franta. Police said Mark Franta had reported his wife missing.

Very sad, as now the two children of the couple are no parentless.
