“About an hour later, there was also an assault that took place in the cafeteria,” wrote Torbert. “Again, police and administrators were immediately involved. Both students received medical attention and appropriate school consequences and charges have been issued.”

Torbert said both incident took place between 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 25.

“I am writing about these incidents so that there is no misconceptions about what has happened. Both incidents took place in very public places. There also may be a video that was recorded of part of the assault. My hope is that this video will not circulate,” wrote Torbert to parents.
