OPINION by AMBER WILKERSON It’s back-to-school time and it is reasonable for parents to enter the year with optimism and hope for the year ahead.
It’s back-to-school time and it is reasonable for parents to enter the year with optimism and hope for the year ahead. Unfortunately, instead of thinking about the educational opportunities for their kids, parents of students at San Luis Obispo High School must go to school another year wondering about the safety of their children every single day.
It is important for parents to have full transparency about the details of these incidents. Instead, the individuals involved – Rollin Dickinson, Leslie O’Connor, and Desiree Dellinger, and the district Superintendent, Eric Prater – continue to ignore their professional obligations. Yes, this involves the club sports teams these individuals are involved in including Cal South and Central Coast Surf Soccer as I am truly talking about complete safety for our community’s youth. These organizations have been on notice for some time about the safety issues surrounding these individuals, but they have turned a blind eye and have surprisingly continued to let them be involved with minors in less structured and supervised situations than a school.
I’ve always wanted to believe what people say, but with each passing year I believe people really show you who they are through their actions. And Dickinson, O’Connor, and Dellinger have demonstrated on multiple occasions that they do not care about our children – your children.
