Statement from the Adams County School Board and Administration

We sincerely apologize for the recent assembly intended to address bullying in our schools. While our goal was to meet an important need within our district, the presenters acted outside the scope of our expectations of high standards/community values and shared affiliations that were completely inappropriate.

We value the trust of our students, staff, and community, and we are sorry that this incident fell short of our standards. The board and administration took immediate action within 24 hours of the board of education meeting held on Monday, October 20th to address concerns and ensure accountability. District leaders collaborated to strengthen our vetting process so that such an incident does not occur again. We also met with NEOLA policy representatives to refine our procedures. A prompt response to the related public records request was sent.

We want to make clear that our teachers and the PTO were not involved in selecting this group.

Our district remains committed to open communication, transparency, and fostering positive relationships with our community. We deeply appreciate your understanding and continued partnership as we move forward together in support of our students’ well-being.
