Parents raise vaping and alleged locker-room bullying; board directs complaint procedure
Summary
During public comment a resident raised concerns about vaping in bathrooms and alleged bullying in locker rooms; the superintendent said there is no active bond, and Chair Hockett directed the commenter to follow complaint procedure KL.
Public comment at the May 18 Port Orford-Langlois School District 2CJ board meeting highlighted student-safety concerns and communication gaps between families and district staff.
Ronald Kraynik began by asking about a proposed bond; Superintendent Aaron Miller replied, "there is nothing currently in the works," and invited Kraynik to discuss the process with him. Kim Nye told the board she had emailed the district about vaping and had not received a response; the minutes record concerns about vaping sensors in building bathrooms and alleged bullying in locker rooms. Chair Korinn Hockett reminded public commenters of the three-minute limit and referred Nye to the district complaint procedure KL for formal follow-up.
The minutes say Rusty Raymond confirmed vaping sensors are installed in building bathrooms and that email reports are sent to administrators (timestamped), not audible alarms. Board members emphasized the importance of following the district's complaint process before escalating matters to the board.
No formal board action was recorded on the safety concerns; the minutes show the board's procedural direction was to use established complaint channels.
