What Happened at Elizabeth Middle School?
Three key administrators are without their jobs today after the principal, assistant principal, and a counselor from Elizabeth Middle School are facing charges of failure to report suspected child abuse. Principal Brett Michael, Assistant Principal Jeff Sparrow, and Counselor Shannon Paxton are the three administrators. An allegation of inappropriate contact with a student was reported last year and ignored by the administrators.
Colorado law mandates that certain professionals, including educators and school personnel, must report any reasonable suspicion of child abuse or neglect. Failure to report may result in legal consequences. This legal obligation reinforces the importance of vigilance in protecting children and encourages prompt reporting.
