NORWICH – A Norwich City School District business teacher resigned Thursday, two days after being arrested by Oneonta Police Department for public lewdness.

On Friday NCSD Superintendent Gerard O'Sullivan issued a statement to say Norwich High School Business Teacher Benjamin Truesdail resigned from the district on Thursday. He had worked for the school since Sept. of 2016.

"I understand it was a personal decision that had nothing to do with the Norwich City School District and certainly nothing to do with any of our students and staff," said O'Sullivan.
