Teacher accused of hitting student resigns

BRUNSWICK COUNTY — The North Brunswick High School PE teacher and coach accused of hitting a female student has resigned.

The resignation was listed on the school board’s personnel list released Tuesday night.

The student in question spoke to NewsChannel 3 back in November and said coach Michael Dumas hit her on the side of the head after another student playfully smacked Dumas on his backside.

The school suspended Dumas late last year.
