A substitute teacher in Maryland has been pulled while a school district investigates alleged jokes the sub made to students about slavery and disabled people, according to a local report.

The alleged remarks were made during a class last week at Henry E. Lackey High School, Charles County Public Schools told WJLA-TV. 

"Late this afternoon, a teacher reported to administrators that he received information from students alleging a substitute teacher shared racially discriminatory and derogatory jokes with students," Principal Kathy Perriello wrote in a letter to parents and staff Friday about the investigation into the alleged incident.

Another teacher at the school overheard students in their class talking about the alleged incident and reported it to school administrators, the district said.
