Dear Mr, Goldsholle
‘Based on information thet was first presented to me on September 13, 2006, Mr. Daniel
D'Amico, the district's Title IX officer, conducted an investigation which included
meeting with individuals who had information regarding your alleged inappropriate
fctions, The allegations included your engaging in inappropriate conversations and
behavior with members of the gis” tennis tear, Seven female students made allegations
against you that ccnsttuted sexual harassment, specifically “conduct or
communication ..creting an intimidating, hostile or _offensive...educational,
environment” and conduct that is “undesirable ot offensive". The investigation
Concluded that these allegations were credible. They include inappropriate language of
Sexual and personal nate; inappropriate conversations about “smoking weed” and the
titls’ menstrual cycles; and ineppropriate touching, Le. playing with the gins” hat,
kissing on the head, holding hips, legs, waists, shoulders when teaching tennis serves. It
twas the opinion of both Mr. D'Amico and me that the testimony the girls gave was
credible.
Mr, D'Amico and 1 met wih you, Me. Visbal, and Babylon Teachers! Associaton President.
Mr. Dennis Lally on September 13 and 18, 2006. The purpose of these meetings was 10
share these allegations with you and provide you with an opportunity to respond. You
denied every accusation. When we informed you that my conversations with the parents
of these girls were consistent with their daughters’ reports and thatthe girs’ allegations
‘were also consistent and coherent, you continued to maintain your innocence. Your
denial of ‘hese was a ced for futher investigation which
NT TT a Sa
1 was brought to my attention that there were further allegations of inappropriate
‘behavior pertaining to ycur interactions with some of your special education students. It
was reported by a male special education student who had been in your resource room
during his senior year that you excused him from class so he could go out and purchase
Juneh, with your money. atthe reduced student rate at stores inthe village. He reported
that he received “senior privilege” in lew of attending tesource room, an {EP mandetedservice, This allegedly occurred approximately 22 times. The student also eporte ‘hat
you told him, “If you get caught, tll them you're cutting” and that on one occasion you
Dretended t reprimand him about cuting his class in front of other adults. Furthermore,
it was alleged by several students that you provided some of them with answers 1 est
Ms, D'Amico and { met with you again on December S, 2006, We were joined by Deanis
Lally (BTA president) and William Oquendo (NYSUT representative). Mr. D'Amico
‘asked if there a time when you directed a student to be excused from resource £002 to
purchase lunch for you, to which you responded that you had done it “only once” because
you knew “another teacher had done it”. You denied the rest of te allegations made by
snd pesaining to the special education students.
Mr, D'Amico also explained at that meeting that he would like to provide you with the
‘opportunity to revisit some of the questions that had been asked in the previous wo
stssion in September. Your responses to questions regarding the numberof times you
had been counseled inthe past regarding these issues, particularly ones related to sexual
harassment, were inconsistent with notes we had from current and past administraors
a
po et
allegations and your responses were so significant thet the only recourse was to proceed
with disciplinary charges.
| find your egregious actions involving students to constitute conduct unbecoming a
teacher. Additionally, { believe you did not properly supervise your students on
numerous occasions and denied them the right to their mandated services. This i a clear
an example of neglect of duty as can be demonstrated. You denied virally every
allegation brought against you by nearly twenty curent and previous students
“This conduct must never be demonstrated by you st any time in the future. 1 assure you
that you will be held tothe highest standard of propeety in every interaction you have
with students or colleagues, Should you be unwilling or unable to refrain from such
‘conduct in the Future, | will seek your termination from service and revocation of your
teaching licens,
I you have any questions in the future regarding the appropriateness of your iterations
with students [implore you to seek my guidance or tat of any of your supervisors,

‘After two and a half years of serving as Lead Teacher forthe Special Education
Department at Babylon High Schoo}, Ihave decided to resign, effective January 27,
2006. I've decided to resign due tothe non stop negative riticism of my work by people
‘who obviously woul like to see someone else inthe poston. I find it a shame that these
‘people have such influence in the decision making of others. Thave always given 100%
{o this position, but obviously 100% is not enough for some people.
