Facts before accusations

Have KREM, KXLY or KHQ ever been in a Mead High School classroom? Because they’re really quick to ruin the reputation of an amazing teacher who has guided me through my freshman year.

My teacher was accused of sexual misconduct with a minor due to an anonymous letter. However, we feel as though this is enough to make my teacher move to the lowest part of our society. Why put an article out about a person, before we feel as though it’s okay to release their name?

Ask the students from Mead. We will explain the wisdom and knowledge that the alleged teacher brought to thousands of students. This teacher has played a crucial role in my life, and I’ve been in tears thinking of going through the last quarter without him.

False knowledge is worse than ignorance, especially when it’s used against someone. It’s best to have all the facts and know what you are talking about before you condemn someone for something you really know nothing about. Facts never include what someone says or what you heard from a person. Facts are what you actually witness. You may think you know everything, but you don’t.
