Coaching dismissal was fair

In today’s litigious world it it encouraging to have a school system willing to stand up for its principles.

There is no room in any high school program for any latitude when it comes to hazing or initiation. There must be strict compliance with the rules.

I support the decision of the school (to fire the two coaches and athletic trainer) of the Oak Park girls soccer team and hope that this does not end up in a bitter legal entanglement that will hurt all involved, mostly the players on the team.

The school has taken appropriate action. John Bamberger Oak Park
