Dear Tussey Mountain School District Families and Staff,
We recently became aware of some very serious charges that were made against a former
graduate and District volunteer. We take these charges very seriously and have taken steps to ensure that moving forward, there will be no contact with this individual and students on any district property.
We want to assure parents that this individual was never left alone with students and was always
accompanied by another adult. We will cooperate fully with any law enforcement efforts.
In the meantime, our music department is continuing to prepare for “Lil Abner”, and our teachers continue to care for and teach music to our students.
Sincerely,
Dr. Jerry Shoemake
Tussey Mountain School District
