During the course of reporting on high school coaching the Weekly obtained many documents, including complaints submitted by parents, e-mails and responses of administrators. A sampling of these documents is available below. Many more will be added when part 2 is published next Friday, May 21.
Names have been redacted to protect the identity of complainants and to protect students referenced from possible embarrassment.
Here are the documents currently available:
