CUSD apologizes to Sequoia High


By on Mon, November 12, 2007

The Cabrillo Unified School District have apologized to Sequoia High School for incidents at a football game on Friday, Nov 2, reports the County Times.

Cougar football players also will have to undergo sensitivity training before next season, Cabrillo Unified Interim Superintendent Allan Kass said. And structural changes will be made to the stadium area to prevent egg- and rock-throwers from keeping out of sight.

"There are structural things we could do to make people feel safer (at games)," Kass said. "This is not a regular occurrence. That was the last home game, and we haven’t had any of this at any other home games."

The changes to the stadium, which will be in place by next football season, could include putting up fencing where the streakers entered the field, adding floodlights and trimming bushes around the stadium so anyone throwing objects from off school grounds could be easily spotted, Kass said.
