A Kennewick teen and Southridge High School student recently charged as an adult with rape of a child in the first degree is not to have contact with minors, but the court said he is allowed to attend school under supervision.

When SHS was asked who would be supervising this student while on school grounds the message was ignored.

As concerned parents and citizens we ask for your signature on this petition as a plea to Benton County Superior Court, Southridge High School and the Kennewick School District NOT to allow Logan Santjer to attend school until this matter is fully resolved and his innocence is proven if that is the outcome.

We fully understand the right to an education, but this young man is facing serious charges in adult court. Student safety, wellbeing, and the overall disruption his presence could lead to in what is to be a safe learning environment needs to be at the forefront in regards to him attending school. Not only for the alleged perpetrator, but all of SHS student body. As well as the neighboring middle school.

Not allowing him to attend school is the best solution for Logan and all of the students at Southridge High School. Not to mention peace of mind to all concerned parents and community members.

Please take a moment to sign and share.

The school district is still ignoring our questions about who will actually keep students safe on campus. Call the superintendent office this morning to demand an answer. Post this link on your social media pages so our community knows exactly what is happening in those hallways.

The administration can no longer ignore the growing number of people demanding that our schools remain safe. Call the Kennewick School District office today to insist they prioritize student safety over this arrangement. Tell your neighbors to post this link on their social media accounts immediately.

It’s not ok! Kids shouldn’t have to be afraid to go to school, and it gives him more kids to pray on. I want my cousin safe. DONT GO TO SCHOOL, GO TO JAIL

If educators (who have raped/molested students) get suspension and can not be allowed in school premises before proven guilty why let this teen walk around the halls free ??!!

Having this youth attend school is unsafe for himself as well as others. This a highly publicized and emotional court case that has no business staying inside of school doors.

I would not want my children to go to school with a rapist. He needs to be supervised at all times. Either he is under watch or should be homeschooled. He is a danger and all students should be warned of him.

He can get his education at home! Just as it says if it was a teacher they wouldn't be allowed to be there. There is no difference!! A sex offender is a sex offender regardless of age!
