[quote=Anonymous]I have no experience with this personally, but I'd hope a school my children attend would (a) report to the appropriate authorities immediately; (b) prioritize doing absolutely whatever is possible to help the victim with recovery (regardless of the source of the trauma!); (c) cooperate with any official investigations; (d) hire a private investigator to work simultaneously in case the official investigators miss something; (e) implement new policies to make similar events less likely in the future; and (f) notify the community ASAP (with the assistance of legal guidance) that something has transpired, that the event is being investigated & handled, and that learnings are being implemented going forward.  Once everything has played out, students who have acted badly should be asked to leave, even if it is not legally possible to prove they have committed a crime.  This seems like the bare minimum, and every school should have a plan prepared in advance to implement if & when necessary![/quote]
