As a parent of a young adult who attended Arlee Schools for 11 years, I find it very hurtful that a school board trustee would call verbal assault, intimidation and bullying from a coach, school board trustee and teachers a sideshow. I hope that this will help show what kind of attitude and lack of communication affects this system that we must entrust and expose our young people to. I ask the school board to add to the policies that parents, grandparents or guardians must meet with the coach or coaches within 48 hours of an incident.
I do not know where this trustee received his information from to make such a remark, so I ask this trustee to produce your evidence as a sideshow. After all, our young are our most important issues, and all issues should be handled with concern.
As for the Valley Journal and the Lake County Leader, I ask this: who was assaulted?
