A news release from the Floyd County School District says the district is aware of a criminal indictment against a district employee concerning a 1995 matter. Upon first notice of this matter, the district took immediate steps to ensure that students were safe, and the employee was placed into a position where he would not be working with or around district students. The district takes allegations of wrongdoing very seriously and has cooperated with law enforcement throughout the investigation of these claims while balancing the safety and wellbeing of our students with the legal rights of the employee. Due to the ongoing nature of these proceedings, the district cannot comment on specific allegations or personnel matters.
