 It's been a month since a quote in the Brainard High School yearbook was discovered that made direct threatening comments regarding President Donald Trump. Clayton Castle sat down today with Brainard Superintendent Lane Larson to discuss the current status of the investigation. The end of the school year is almost always a joyous occasion for students, faculty and staff. However, on May 16th, the Brainard High School community was faced with a controversy surrounding its yearbook when a quote from a student was published stating, I would like to behead him, I do not like him. The quote was in reference to United States President Donald J. Trump. It's been almost a month and the Brainard Public School superintendent says that the investigation has been completed. The information report that we have received back, we have gone over with the Board of Education and we have now started with some of the disciplinary proceedings. Although the investigation has concluded disciplinary actions have not yet been decided, however it's not just the student who may be facing disciplinary action, the yearbook faculty advisor may also be disciplined. Once again, that would be part of the disciplinary action that the school district is undertaking. And due to the collective bargaining agreement, we have to work through this grievance period of time. And if a grievance isn't filed during the period of time, then that final disposition of disciplinary action will be identified. Otherwise, it would be after any arbitration took place if a grievance was filed. As a result of the investigation and situation as a whole, the district will be reviewing the policies of the yearbook staff to assure that this never happens again. The comments that came in the yearbook were not reflective of the district mission or anything having to do with how we believe personally as a school district. We have a wonderful, wonderful school district and we know a mistake has been made and we are dealing with that. We are in the process right now of looking at the policy for our student publications and we are going to do everything in our power to ensure that this doesn't happen again. Now while the district's investigation has concluded, there's no word yet on the status of the investigation being conducted by the U.S. Secret Service.
