Two Cedar Hill High School band directors placed on administrative leave last month amid allegations involving former students are no longer employed by the district, Cedar Hill ISD confirmed.

In a letter to parents, Principal Courtney Washington said William Johnson and Derrick Walker are no longer with the district but provided no further details, citing federal privacy laws.

The district initially announced in October that the two directors had been placed on leave while police investigated allegations involving former, not current, students.
