LET’S TALK ABOUT IT…
Are Schools Soft on Safety?

Why do we have to keep asking this question: Are children SAFE in our local schools?

From our previous questions, we know that vulnerable, non-verbal, autistic children were beaten by a Poudre School District employee on a PSD bus; elementary students in Thompson School District have reportedly been bitten, punched, lacerated, and sexually abused; and we know of Instagram accounts associated with PSD high school students which feature videos of vicious fights in PSD bathrooms.

Last week we learned that now sexual abuse of children has occurred on PSD property. This is in addition to the proven physical abuse that happened at PSD. What is going on? Should our community be asking questions about the safety of children in our schools?
