Gausman is finally out. This district failed those kids and protected their own reputations instead of keeping students safe but we forced their hand. We will stay vigilant to ensure the next leadership actually puts student safety before their own power.

The Superintendent is empowered by the School Board for one reason. To uphold, and enforce the Policies put into place by the School Board. This Superintendent has failed to do so. He has even refused to investigate a sexual assault of a child, on their campus. Please join me in calling for is resignation.

Gausman thinks he can bury this scandal and wait for us to go away. We need to hit one hundred signatures right now to force the board to stop hiding behind his incompetence. Send this link to everyone you know and demand he steps down.

This superintendent has gotten with not protecting our children for far to long - he says our children are safe at school - talk to any student in this district and they will tell you about bullying and sexual assault that happens a lot and a blind eye is given

I was raped in the stairwell of North High School. The school districts only solution was to transfer me to East High. I was hospitalized for attempted suicide a month later because I truly thought no one would ever believe me. This insanity needs to stop!

My son was bullied in 7th grade and none of the teacher or staff would do anything about it until my son fought back. Then they tried to suspend my son which I did not allow to happen. This was at East middle

I believe that if the superintendent isn’t going to do something about this assault case on a little 4 year old girl than he should be forced to resign or fired what happened to believing children your suppose to protect them

If a public school official paid by taxpayers isn't going to look out for students well being then they don't need to be in education.
