The news broke over the weekend that one of the WSFCS employees who accused (former?) Atkins principal Dan Piggott of fondling her says “she didn’t report the incidents when they happened because Piggott implied that school administrators would protect him and that he could retaliate against her.”

Superintendent Don Martin’s comments on this new development certainly aren’t a voice of support for Piggott:

“Certainly, Dan may have said that. We haven’t talked to Dan. Let’s assume he said that. He could have said that to bully someone into submission. Certainly, people knew that he knew all of the top administrators,” Martin said. “The issue with Dan is he did a lot of good things, but this behavior is unacceptable, and he has been dismissed.”
