Regarding Recent Incident

To our AIMS community,

I understand through questions from members of the community that there are concerns regarding statements attributed to an AIMS staff member on an online site unrelated to AIMS, and I wanted to take a moment to address these concerns.  Whenever we are called upon to investigate allegations of possible inappropriate behavior by staff, I want you to know that we take swift action so that we can determine appropriate next steps.  We are doing so in this matter.

Separately, we were informed that this staff member also may have posted a video or images of his class on social media.  Please be assured that AIMS has a strict policy prohibiting staff from using classroom footage on social media without the express consent of families and AIMS administration.  We cannot disclose specific personnel matters due to privacy laws.  However, I did want to assure you that the staff member is not currently on campus and that we are taking this matter very seriously and will conduct a thorough investigation.

Thank you for reading this message. Should you have any questions regarding this matter, please feel free to reach out to your Head of School.

Warmly,

 

Superintendent Maya Woods-Cadiz
