He resigned. Was it insensitive? Yes. Should it end his career? That's debatable. But in all likelihood, it did.
Now there are reports that teacher's participated in a playground game involving escaped slaves (played by black kids). The jury is out but, according to the school's investigation, this was something perpetrated by the students themselves.
