Principal section: findings favoring the school
REDACTED PUBLICATION COPY | REVIEWED OCTOBER 27, 2026
These are the supplied file's findings, not an independent verification of the cited records. The April 2025
investigation concerns a different peer from the December 19 conflict.
Source p. 6: immediate investigation and earlier, separate bullying investigation
The investigation into the reported physical incident was conducted, timely, and included
multiple forms of corroborated evidence, including student statements, witness accounts, video
review, and a formal threat assessment. These elements support that a procedurally sound
investigation occurred with respect to the incident itself.
The documentation reflects that prior bullying concerns had, in fact, been reported and
investigated, including a documented bullying investigation in April 2025 involving JE as
the identified victim and a different student (not the student that was involved in the 12/19/25
incident). That investigation included written statements, parent notification, and counseling
referrals. As a result, the evidence demonstrates that the school had prior awareness of peer
conflict concerns and had implemented investigative and intervention measures before the
December 19, 2025 incident. While the immediate incident was thoroughly investigated, the
broader context informing the incident was also considered through review of prior documented

Source p. 8: asserted intervention, notification, December 4 mediation and monitoring
Based on review of the contact logs, counselor documentation, mediation records, bullying
investigation documentation, disciplinary records, threat assessment materials, and witness
statements, the investigation determined that the school did engage in follow-through related to
reported bullying and peer conflict concerns.
The evidence reflects that:
e A formal bullying investigation was conducted following a reported incident in April 2025
involving I as the victim;
e The investigation included identification of the offender, written statements, parent
notification within 24 hours, and referrals to counseling services;
© School personnel continued behavioral monitoring and communication with the family
throughout the school year;
Counselor-facilitated mediation between the students occurred on December 4, 2025;
Following the December 19, 2025 incident, the school completed a comprehensive
investigation that included witness interviews, video review, a threat assessment,
disciplinary procedures, referral to the Office of Student Conduct and Discipline, and a
Manifestation Determination Review.
Collectively, the evidence demonstrates that the school moved through the continuum of:
