The Longview School District has released the findings of an independent review recommending policy changes following the alleged sexual assaults involving Mark Morris High School basketball players during the 2025-26 season. Investigators also said supervision requirements should be practical and take into account each school’s layout and staffing. The report found it concerning that other students allegedly witnessed or participated in the misconduct, recommending hazing prevention education and encouraging students to report unsafe behavior. Bowen stated, “We are committed to carefully reviewing and evaluating the report’s recommendations… to develop an actionable implementation plan centered on student safety.” The review also found investigators were unable to confirm whether district staff notified the Title IX coordinator, the district’s insurer, risk management officials, or legal counsel after the allegations surfaced.
