[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shipley was not only the Crew Coach, he was a teacher at Whitman. Why was he a teacher after the original accusations?[/quote]

Can you not just read the thread?[/quote]

You are an a$$. Yes I read the thread. Crew is not an MCPS sport. It’s a club team. If girls reported him to the Crew Board, was he reported to the Principal? If  so, why was he teaching up to this school year?[/quote]

Well you are very rude. All this is covered in the thread so maybe you should read it again, but S.L.O.W.L.Y[/quote]

So what did the principal do? Nothing until the police arrest three years later. Typical MCPS. [/quote]

What do you want the principal to do about it?  Apparently in Montgomery County what he did wasn’t technically illegal as stated per the code of Maryland and the code in Montgomery County.  The only reason it came to the conclusion it did is because the code in the District of Columbia makes it explicitly illegal for a secondary teacher to be sexual with their students until the age of 20.  It makes clear in their law that it doesn’t matter if the person is the age or majority or not.

I like to think this was not the principal(s) sweeping it away (I could be very wrong) rather it is a function of him not having proof nor the laws to back it up.  You need actual proof to sustain an allegation and you need a law to provide teeth to those allegations.

It would make me sad to think Alan Goodwin purposely looked the other way.[/quote]
