Following the discovery of the 50 late-reported cases, the FDOE OIG investigated why the district failed to report them on time. The resulting report reveals that, for years, cases that should have risen to a state level of investigation, slipped through the cracks.Johnson told News4JAX that the cases had slipped through the cracks because his office, the Office of Professional Standards, was overburdened.
Among them, were three allegations of teachers using a racial slur and a teacher at Douglas Anderson who was found to have shown a sexual video and made sexual comments in the presence of students, more than two years earlier. He received a verbal warning after a school-based investigation. When asked why those cases weren’t reported, Johnson said if he shared that with the I-TEAM, it would open a new chapter on systemic problems at the district that he’s trying to put behind him.
The OIG report also reads, “Johnson reiterated that the cases were never reported due to oversight and the lack of an efficient case management system within OPS. Johnson declined to answer if he received any directive to not report cases.”
