INVESTIGATION'S FINDINGS: Members of one of the district's athletics teams videotaped assaults of teammates and shared photos of their genitals among the team and on social media, a report from the Department of Education said.

Federal education officials found that sexual harassment took place on a team bus, in the locker and weight rooms, and in the Athletics Physical Education classroom, creating a"hostile educational environment." Team members reported they were disgusted and shocked by the harassment, avoided the locker room, and the team's social media to avoid harassment themselves and considered leaving the team to avoid becoming targets.

The harassing conduct included videotaped assaults of teammates, students forcibly overpowering other students, and sharing photos of their genitals among the team and on social media, and placing their genitals on or near other students' faces and bodies, according to education officials. When notified, the Department of Education said the school's response to these incidents"was not reasonably calculated to end the harassing conduct or prevent its recurrence. Likewise, the district's response following the investigations reflected an inability to address adequately the conduct and a failure to consider interim supportive measures to protect student athletes from sexual harassment.

Hope whoever was responsible for their lack luster response is doing so in the unemployment line. We don't need individuals like this in charge of our schools.

The School, The District, those players involved and coaches should be held responsible. Like go to jail.
