Three administrators with Durham Public Schools were indicted Tuesday in an investigation into a 2024 incident at Eno Valley Elementary School, according to the superintendent. The three were also suspended with pay, officials said.
Superintendent Anthony Lewis did not give details on what happened, but said the incident happened at the elementary school in November 2024 and was reported to police. Instructional assistants involved in the incident resigned shortly after it was reported, he said.
“Because active legal and personnel matters are ongoing, there are limits on what additional details I can share at this time,” Lewis said in an email to parents Wednesday morning.
“What I want to be clear about is this: nothing is more important than the safety and well-being of our students. Any matter involving student safety must be handled with urgency, care, and full cooperation,” he said.
“Durham Public Schools has established policies and procedures in place to protect student safety and, as our review moves forward, we will reinforce expectations and apply what we learn to ensure those practices meet the high standards families expect and students deserve,” Lewis said.
He said parents could contact their principal or the DPS public affairs office with any questions or concerns.
