The U.S. Department of Education just completed its investigation into Owasso Public Schools’ handling of Title IX cases.
A 20-page report outlines their findings.
Buried in page 15 is the story of a high school teacher accused of “grooming” his students.
The report says an unnamed teacher sent “frequent messages over social media to a female high school student.”
In one instance, the teacher asked the student to name her favorite drink, then offered to bring it to class. This was not a one-off.
In fact, the report says the teacher sent more than 130 messages to three female students.
The report never names the teacher in question; however, it does say he worked at the high school and resigned after a meeting with human resources.
2 News is working to uncover this teacher’s identity. OPS says it is working to fulfill an open records request filed by 2 News.
2 News also asked for an interview with Superintendent Margaret Coates. The spokesperson for the district did not respond to that request.
