Centreville, Mich.Feb 23 2012 — A Sturgis High School teacher was arrested Monday after authorities say marijuana was found in his home.

Neville was arrested and taken to the LaGrange County Jail. He is charged with possession of marijuana, a class A misdemeanor, and maintaining a common nuisance, a class D felony.
Neville is now free on a $5,500 bond.
Thomas Langdon, superintendent of Sturgis Public Schools, issued a statement Tuesday.
“Sturgis Public Schools is aware of this matter,” Landon said. “In fact, the teacher in question is on leave while we conduct a thorough investigation of any professional misconduct.”
Langdon said the school district expects “exemplary behavior from its students and staff members alike.”
“With that in mind, the district perceives this as a serious issue, and it will be dealt with in that manner,” he said.
