- Ed Young Controversy
-
On October 22, 2006, the Seattle Times published a story concerning a former teacher at Kokanee Elementary School in the Northshore School District who had been accused of fondling several of his female students. Carl Leede, who had been teaching in the district for 20 years, was said to have fondled several girls and used inflammatory language and inappropriate behavior during the course of his tenure at the school. Leede was reported several times for touching students to his direct supervisor, Principal Ed Young. Young responded to the complaints in a meeting he had with Leede by giving him a pamphlet which described the differences between appropriate and inappropriate touching. A civil suit was brought against the district, which was settled for $55,000, but which allowed Leede to continue working at Kokanee under the direct supervision of Ed Young. Leede later left the Northshore District and was convicted in 2000 on six counts of misdeamenor assault in charges that were brought by former students at Kokanee Elementary. Young was serving as the principal of Skyline when the story was published, and responded to the allegations by claiming that he had never heard any complaints about Leede. The Issaquah School District initiated an investigation, but Young resigned from his position before its conclusion. Young issued the following statement through the school district:
"All the while, I have concentrated on what's best for the students and school. As I visited classrooms and celebrated the Spartans'; homecoming victory, it became apparent to me that all of the media focus on me has detracted from Skyline; and I would never want to impede students' success." The district then concluded their investigation, stating that his resignation "ended [1] involvement in the Northshore matter". - External links
