(Audubon, Iowa) – About a dozen students with the Audubon Community School District protested issues of Bullying and Harassment this (Monday) morning. The students apparently perceive not enough is being done by school administrators to deal with the perpetrators of the actions allegedly taking place. Superintendent Eric Trager says what the students and some parents don’t understand, is that information about student disciplinary actions is not something they are allowed to release to the public.

The District, he said, “Honors their right to do that (Protest),” but it does count against them as an “Unexcused absence.”

Mr. Trager said some parents, while understanding of the reason, were not too pleased with how and when it was carried out.

Trager said they often hear that the district isn’t doing anything to reduce bullying and harassment, but he says that’s simply not true.

He says the district will continue to follow their rules as policies and rules seriously and as allowed by law.
