OCS Central Office leadership recently became aware of an allegation of inappropriate physical contact between a school administrator and a student.
OCS immediately reported the incident to the West Virginia Department of Human Services and to law enforcement, as is required by West Virginia law. Both agencies are conducting their own independent investigations with OCS fully cooperating. The student’s family was immediately notified followed by a meeting with OCS leadership to provide known information.
The administrative employee was immediately removed from the assignment as required by West Virginia law. The employee has tendered a resignation to OCS.
OCS is completing its own investigation and will submit a final report to the West Virginia Department of Education.
