GCMS Families,
On Thursday, April 3rd the GCMS Board of Education adopted the attached resolution 7-0. As the resolution states GCMS Middle School Teacher, and coach, Robert Dinkins has been placed on paid administrative leave pending the conclusion of two open investigations into misconduct. Please take a few moments and read the entirety of the resolution for awareness and understanding into the facts we are able to share at this time.
It is important to share with everyone that because this is a legal process not all information can be shared and children and adults are hurting, scared, sad, and angry and everyone is allowed to have their own emotion based on their personal experience.
We will not share any more details into the circumstances in these investigations to respect the process, rights, and privacy of all impacted parties. New information or action will be shared with families when it becomes available.
Students and athletes, along with their parent/guardians, who have been impacted by this decision will receive information on teachers and coaches in the coming days.
I apologize that such an unsettling circumstance is occurring in our system and we will continue to work to ensure the safety and well being of our students every day.
Should you have any questions please reach out to either myself or your child's administration for support.
Sincerely,
