Amador County Unified: Canceling varsity football team season 'right thing to do' after inappropriate group chat surfaced

Amador County Unified School District officials said it was justified in suspending a varsity football team and canceling their season after an inappropriate group chat surfaced online. "The nature of the thread was disturbing and inappropriate with content that does not fall in line with the values that we instill in our learning community," said Torie Gibson, Amador County Unified superintendent of schools in a letter to families. The letter also said the Amador High School's varsity team would not have had enough people to play this year because of how many members were involved in the thread.
