Peoria Schools Face Lawsuit Over Abuse Reporting
Description
A bombshell lawsuit is rocking Peoria Unified School District, accusing officials of negligence, failing to report child abuse, and violating civil rights—all tied to a 2019 teacher convicted of sex crimes in 2023. As the district faces fresh scrutiny over sexual misconduct allegations against two former Centennial High educators, police recently raided district offices. School board members now demand an independent review of mandatory reporting procedures, even as authorities say no reporting violations were found—though the investigation continues. The victim’s attorney insists the timing was strategic, waiting for the criminal case to close to build a strong civil case. The district claims it reported the teacher and provides annual training, though it hasn’t officially received the lawsuit yet.
