Two thousand six hundred residents and one hundred and fifteen teachers? Did I miss something in the article or does Texas just have a very low student to teacher ratio?
I am now always skeptical of these wide ranging sexual abuse investigations. History has shown us that they most often grab up many innocent people who have their lives ruined before they are cleared many years later.
The school district encompasses many square miles. There is a student population of around 1400-1500. This is the case in many West Texas towns. There is a fairly low student/teacher ratio, but some of these coaches only coach and don't teach. Guess it remains to be seen if the accused are innocent or not.
There was an example of that in Washington State where girls were used to accuse innocent adults of false sexual abuse. HOWEVER, if true, these coaches were putting themselves in the wrong situations at the wrong time in the wrong places. What the "()*()*)(* where they thinking??? What I hate more is that it only gives more ammuntion propaganda for the education liberals to use in their political agenda against eduction. Being adults, they should have known better.
Most Texas school districts have a lot of rural students. The size of the town will have nothing to do with the number of students - expecially in West Texas. Some of the kids I went to school with rode the bus for 1 hour, 1 way.
