On Thursday Dec. 1, News 12 received an anonymous tip from a Nanuet parent accusing a Miller Elementary School teacher of spilling the beans about Santa Claus to her class of second graders.

"This matter is being discussed internally, and it would be inappropriate for me to comment further," said Superintendent Mark McNeill.
