DALEVILLE, Ind. (WISH) — A P.E. teacher and assistant basketball coach at Daleville Junior/Senior High School has been fired following accusations of inappropriate conduct and communication with students.
Greg Roach, Daleville Community Schools superintendent, confirmed the incident to News 8 Wednesday morning. He did not clarify when the coach was fired or when reports were first made.
According to Roach, school administration “recently” became aware of the accusations and immediately placed the coach on leave.
Following a “thorough” investigation, the school board voted to fire the coach.
Roach, in a letter sent to students and families shared with News 8, emphasized that though the school was limited in the details it could provide, it is focused on taking “all necessary actions” to protect its students.
“We understand that news like this can be concerning. Please be assured that the safety and well-being of our students is – and will always remain – our top priority,” Roach said. “We are committed to maintaining a safe, supportive, and positive environment for all students.”
News 8 has reached out to the Delaware County prosecutor to see if charges will be filed.
