Superintendent’s alleged mismanagement causes parent concern

In response to news surfacing around the alleged mishandling of a sexual misconduct case at Meadowdale Elementary, six individuals spoke up during Public Comments at the Edmonds School District board meeting on August 18, 2026. They requested that Superintendent Rebecca Miner “step down” from her position, and that the District assume responsibility for its inaction. According to parent Kelly Haller who read from a petition at the meeting, the misconduct in question took place over the years 2022 to 2024. Throughout 2022, several allegations were made against a male learning support teacher of alleged sexual misconduct toward both special education students and fellow staff members. Allegedly, action was not immediately taken. In December of 2023, the District began an investigation, but no students were interviewed during this time. The result was verbal admonishment and a letter to the teacher detailing the boundaries he should keep with students and co-workers. This was placed in his working disciplinary file. Yet, “despite very specific directives, the behavior continued and escalated,” cited Haller. Another eight months would pass before the teacher was placed on paid administrative leave for the 2024 to 2025 school year, nearly two years after the concerns began. During this time, a report was filed with law enforcement on his behavior by a staff member, and an extensive investigation was enacted. According to Edmonds News, InvestigativeWest and The Herald reports that Lynnwood police initially filed two fourth-degree assault charges (in other words, a threat or indication of malicious intention) against the teacher, David Sibley. The Lynnwood municipal prosecutor reviewed these, and requested additional investigation. Edmonds News reported that upon receiving a fifth-grade female victim’s report in 2025, Lynnwood police brought the allegation to the Snohomish County Prosecutor’s Office, which in August declined to file a first-degree child rape charge against Sibley. They cited a lack of “sufficient admissible evidence to prove that a crime was committed beyond a reasonable doubt,” and Sibley had denied all allegations.

Six Kitsap teams open football playoffs Friday. Here's the schedule

Week 10 of the high school football season in West Sound features eight total contests, six being postseason games. It's that time of the year when only the best programs get to progress deeper into November. Five Olympic League teams will be vying for Class 2A state tournament berths when they take the field Friday and Saturday, while Klahowya is hoping to reach the 1A state tournament out of the Nisqually League. South Kitsap, Central Kitsap and Kingston will finish their seasons this week after missing out on the playoffs. For the other six local squads, it's win or go home. Here's a preview of Week 10 games: Thursday, Nov. 5 South Kitsap (1-8) at Bonney Lake (2-7), 6 p.m. : The Wolves have a chance to finish on a high note and snap a 5-game losing skid after dropping a 34-33 overtime game to Spanaway Lake in Week 9. South Kitsap finished 6-4 last season to post its first winning record in over a decade, but this fall has been a reminder of the struggles South Kitsap has endured as members of the Class 4A South Puget Sound League.

North Mason football keeps season alive with play-in game victory

North Mason's football team kept its season alive with two of its biggest stars playing key roles in a 18-15 victory over Washington on Tuesday, Oct. 3 in a Class 2A district play-in game at Franklin Pierce High School in Tacoma. Senior quarterback Reid Shumaker tossed a pair of touchdown passes to senior receiver Derek Dunham as the Bulldogs rallied for a 18-15 victory. North Mason (6-4) will advance to the Round of 32 and face Anacortes (7-1) on the road Saturday at 3 p.m. Anacortes won back-to-back state titles in 2024-25 and reached the semifinal round last fall. "It's an opportunity to get to play one of the top teams in the state," North Mason head coach John Fullington said. "Super excited for the boys." North Mason, which finished in fifth place in the Olympic League, led Tuesday's game 10-0 before Washington mounted a comeback. The Patriots, who placed fifth in the South Puget Sound League, scored the next 15 points before Shumaker and Dunham connected for the game's final touchdown midway through the fourth quarter. North Mason's defense forced Washington to turn the ball over on downs with under 2 minutes to play and the Bulldogs were able

Ex-athletic director resigns from teaching position at Pierce County high school

A new director is heading athletics at Gig Harbor High School following the abrupt departure of his predecessor. Jordan Halstead, former athletic director at Issaquah High School, started in the role Sept. 16, a district employee report on the school district’s website shows. Halstead resigned his position at IHS as of Aug. 31, per a list of employees leaving the district that the Issaquah school board approved that month. Halstead’s arrival follows the Peninsula School District’s removal of Erick Counts, who held the position for less than a month before learning on Aug. 27 that he was losing the job. The previous athletic director, Blair Suek, was hired ahead of the 2022-23 school year and resigned in June 2026 ; her predecessor, Bob Werner, had held the role since 2011. Counts then resigned his position as a part-time social studies teacher at Gig Harbor High School on Oct. 23, the district employee report shows. The district confirmed his resignation in an email to The News Tribune Tuesday. “Mr. Counts has resigned from the Peninsula School District, and his resignation was approved at last week’s board meeting on October 27,” Chief of Schools Michael Farmer wrote. “The district cannot comment further
