No, the legal process is continuing.

At this point I’ve gathered that the boys are kind of sick of being bombarded with counselors. But there’s been enough open conversation about and condemnation of the abusive teacher that I really think it is unlikely that another teacher would be able to threaten their way into secrecy.

I do feel like my son is safe there. I’m heartbroken for the abused boy(s) and the fellow teachers who were horribly betrayed by their trusted colleague. But the conversations have certainly been had loudly, openly, and repeatedly, and that increases safety.

Of course, if future investigations reveal any institutional cover ups or blame, there will be a reckoning. But right now the process is playing out.

There are a couple of (non-Gilman-community) posters here with real axes to grind on the subject, either due to their own trauma elsewhere or some other reason - but Gilman parents are, on the whole, okay with how the administration has reacted to learning of this teacher’’s criminal deeds.

In any case, I would be very surprised if their applications fell by any noticeable number due to this issue. They have no trouble filling their incoming classes.[/quote]
