There is nothing political about a cry to release the internal report on the sexual assaults in LCPS. 0! It is solely about accountability, ethics, what is right, and just. I was asked during my campaign if I supported its release. Yes then and yes now.

Loudoun County Public School administrators and school board members (with a few exceptions) are going to completely debase a $1.6 billion operation because of pride, politics, and spectacularly inept judgment.

Today is December 18, 2022 and the senior level staff who failed students and families in LCPS in the wake of the sexual assaults are still employed after the GJ report was released on December 5, 2022.

Loudoun County Superintendent failed to accurately report sexual assault data to the state

In emails obtained by 7News, the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) told Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) Superintendent Scott Ziegler and the school district's deputy superintendent in...

The Loudoun school board is blaming the superintendent for rape concealment (after previously thanking him for serving as a "lighting rod" for criticism). But when he said on June 22 that there'd been no assaults in school bathrooms, every member had reason to know it was a lie

301

21: Even more significant than the failure to ensure that the VDOE reporting laws and rules were followed is the school board's failure to ensure that Title IX was followed. We'll cover that another time. But keep reading . . .

20: The failure of the school board to ensure that

was reporting incidents to VDOE is alone a breach of the board's legal duty. That's before you even get to the admin's reckless indifference to handle an accused rapist highlighted in the special grand jury report.

19: What are the legal DUTIES of a school board in Virginia? Rule No. 1: "See that the school laws are properly explained, enforced and observed." Rule No. 2: "take care that they the schools conducted according to law."

17: Former school board member Andrew Hoyler (who was not on the board when the 2 sexual assaults occurred) speculates that Ziegler was fired because (1) the pressure got too hot, and (2) they were worried VDOE would do it and make them look bad.

16: The Loudoun County School Board finally fired Ziegler on 12/6/22 after the special grand jury report was unsealed. They fired him WITHOUT CAUSE. Meaning he would continue to collect over $300,000 for the next year.

15: Did the Loudoun County School Board fire Ziegler after 5/3/22? No. But most did vote to give him a $28,000 raise.

14: And even IF the "independent review" presented to the school board on 1/4/22 didn't cover the reporting failure (doubtful),

@7NewsDC

reported this on 5/3/22.

13: The failure to report by Ziegler didn't stop Loudoun County School Board Member

@brendalsheridan

from praising Ziegler's "integrity" and pledging her "unwavering support" at a Board of Supervisors budget meeting in late January of 2022 - after the "independent review."

12: Loudoun County School Board knows about 5/28/21 sexual assault the day it happened. But MAYBE it didn't know about the DCV failure until its "independent review" was presented to it on 1/4/22. But the school board did nothing until 12/6/22, when it finally fired Ziegler.

11: But what if it's an innocent screw up - just some paperwork issues? Doubtful. Reporting DCV data is the superintendent's legal duty and sanctions for failure to do so include being removed from office by the school board or state board of education.

10: So if they had already passed the policy, what's the possible motive for not including the May 28 incident on 8/13? Superintendent Scott Ziegler lied about the 5/28/21 incident at the 6/22/21 school board meeting. He's now been indicted for that statement.

9: On 8/11/21, the Loudoun County School Board passed Policy 8040 - the transgender bathroom policy.

8: It's also noteworthy that the date of

defective submission was on 8/13/21. Per former VDOE James Lane memo sent before the 2020-21 school year, the due date was 7/16/21. What happened in between 7/16/21 and 8/13/21? Read on . . .

7: VDOE documents further make clear that sexual assault and battery must be reported regardless of sanction.

6: VDOE then had to explain to Ellis how this was insufficient. Schools must report "incidents" and that is not dependent on charges or convictions. Further, he cites VDOE guidance (right) which makes clear - all incidents reported to law enforcement must be reported to VDOE.

3: Deputy Superintendent Ashley Ellis says the report was submitted on August 13 w/o the May 28 assault included b/c

hadn't been updated on the law enforcement investigation. She acknowledges incident was reported to law enforcement.

2: Note the date of the email - 10/14/21. That was three days after

@lukerosiak

's story on the two sexual assaults. It looks like VDOE found out about the 5/28/21 assault from the Daily Wire story and was wondering why this wasn't in

mandatory DCV reporting.
