Requesting removal of Superintendent Dr Chad Coffman and Athletic Director Kevin Yeckley. In January a student was violently attacked at Lakota in the gym locker room. The athletic director or coach was to be in the gym that afternoon and instead left the students unattended. In the months of prosecuting the students who attacked the victim, Dr Coffman and Kevin Yeckley refused to follow the court order of no contact, they refused to believe there was court proceedings going on they spread lies to the school saying that the court washed their hands of the case and we only alleged there was actual prosecution happening and after a 12 yr old boy was raped in the gym locker room and then went through a Sane Exam, they felt 80 days was enough time for those boys to be suspended and the victim to heal and learn to coexist. They only showed concern for the offenders rights to come back to school and play sports as nothing happened. They forced the victim to face the attackers and they made the victim feel as if he were the one that committed the crime, and he was not the victim. The offenders were found delinquent and admitted to what they did in court. One has been sentenced and sits in JDC and the other two will be sentenced Nov 5 2024. The mother of the victim was a certified sub in the school and well liked by everyone including the student body. Dr Coffman made several calls to the mother and myself attempting to intimidate us into not getting the truth out to the Board or the parents of the school and community. Dr Coffman took her hours away from her and refused to make the school safe and left her no choice but to relocate her children to another school. There are now strict guidelines of from the court on the students that committed the crime, when they are in school. Dr Coffman and Kevin Yeckley have made it very clear that the safety of the students at Lakota is not their first priority. They do not follow the code of conduct and are clearly negligent in providing a healthy and safe learning environment for the students. We are requesting that the State of Ohio and School Board remove them from their positions due to their negligence in this matter. The victim and his family were so proud to be Lakota Raiders and due to the actions of Dr Chad Coffman and Kevin Yeckley they now look at Lakota as an unsafe environment full of deception.
