Law also requires sex assaults to be reported to superintendent; superintendent claimed he did not know of any sexual assaults on school property.
Loudoun County Public Schools did not record multiple known incidents of alleged sexual assault in schools dating back several years, despite a law that requires statistics about school safety incidents to be reported to the public and which includes provisions holding school superintendents personally liable for violations, a Daily Wire review of public records found.
After The Daily Wire raised the discrepancy with the Virginia Department of Education, VDOE spokesman Charles Pyle said that “VDOE is reviewing the discipline, crime and violence data submissions of Loudoun County Public Schools and is in communication with LCPS to determine whether the division’s reporting is accurate and whether the division is in compliance with state and federal law.”
The same law could have implications for a Loudoun superintendent or principal in the wake of a May 28 alleged sexual assault in a bathroom — an incident first reported by The Daily Wire Monday. On June 22, Superintendent Scott Ziegler told the public, “To my knowledge, we don’t have any record of assaults occurring in our restrooms.”
Virginia law requires that “Reports shall be made to the division superintendent and to the principal or his designee on all incidents involving … sexual assault.”
The Daily Wire asked LCPS questions last week including, “Has Stone Bridge ever reported the May alleged sexual assault in any statistics or made anyone aware of it?” LCPS hid behind state law, with Director of Communications Joan Sahlgren replying that “Any information related to student information is confidential under state and federal laws regarding student privacy.”

File this under, “It’s only bad when Catholics do it.”
Arrest them as accessories after the fact.
Put them in the general population and hold them there pending trial as long as the DC attendees have been.
Oh. And put the female staffers in the general population in the men’s prison.
Sauce for the goose and all that.
Whom are they protecting??
Whom are they protecting?

Not whom, what.
A. Perversion in all its forms.
Grooming Primmarily,,,
It’s all schools seem to be doing now days.

This case reminds me of Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel’s 2013 leniency deal with the school district to reduce arrests in all of Broward’s schools. Nikolas Cruz who committed the mass shooting at Parkland, had 70 prior incidents recorded in the Broward County’s data base, and nothing was ever done about them. He’d been given chance, after chance, because of that program, and it ended up with him murdering 17 people. How many more sexual assaults will they ignore before some kid is found dead, after having been sexually assaulted? Once a rapist is identified, but not locked up, they don’t usually leave witnesses that can identify them the next time they attack. These schools think that by hushing everything up, that it will all just go away. Instead, they create an even bigger problem, which I hope comes back to bite them in the ass, and their pocket books.
I doubt they are the only school system to fail to report sexual assault crimes.
Re an honest answer from the Loudon School Superintendent et al, “Forget it Daily Wire. It’s Loudon County”.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Those Loudoun School Board members are sure a bunch of fine criminals. What kind of people live in that district? The whole State of Va. is messed up. McAuliffe just told the parents they have no say in the School Curriculum. You bought him now live with him.
Pretty much correct on your commentary. I suspect if you dug into all Virginia acts of sexual assault on school property over the past 20 years....there’s probably over 20,000 ‘records’. Schools don’t want to handle the affairs, and I readily agree...dump it over to the local sheriff...bring the kid out of the school in handcuffs...holding them for a court-date, and handle this via an adult court situation. If the 16-year old kid needs six years of prison to mature-up...fine.
But I think all of this leads back to a fear that massive court episodes will occur, and a thousand young guys each year in the state of Virginia will go off for year or two of state prison time.
The curious thing about this is that the schools are officially permitted (by VA law) to cover up crimes and fail to criminally refer the perpetrators - with the full approval of the press, the courts and the public. Kinda sounds like what they (often falsely) accused the Catholic Church of doing, to great public horror and media hysteria.
Why is it better to be raped or assaulted in a public school? Why is it okay with parents that children in school are less safe than when walking down the street on their way to school? If somebody, even another student, grabbed them on the street and raped them, it would be a crime and the perpetrator would be in jail as soon as the police could get them. But once the kids step into the school building, rape or assault is perfectly okay and just one of those things that kids do.
In most States, the school administrators, social workers, and teachers are "Mandatory Reporter"s of any incident of violence, by force of State law !
To do anything less than reporting to law enforcement makes them liable for criminal facilitation,..and/ or civil lawsuit.
When they claim things are confidential, they are lying.
This sounds like a RICO suit might work.
