I will try to do my best to explain this question by giving a little background first.
I personally witnessed several severe OHSAA breaches in ethics and regulations (with proof) and borderline abuse from the coaching staff. Personally, I investigated and spoke to several professionals who agreed they were against OHSAA rules and regulations. They advised I report to the AD director and principal, which I did but it was swept under the rug. Next I took these severe concerns to the superintendent; again it was swept under the rug. Now we are from a little community where it has already been proven that the good ol' boys club is thriving; I could give examples but would rather not for fear of retaliation.
Anyhow, I feel like OHSAA really needs to know and investigate these issues; however, they do not take calls or emails from parents or students. I mean I understand why OHSAA would want to restrict communication between the parent and athletes but in our situation it makes it difficult! The coach can continue operating rogue, abusing/ allowing abuse to occur and there is no way to get help for these students. What should I do?
