Teacher Misconduct Makes GRHS Gain National Attention
The High School gained much national attention in 2002, when a french teacher by the name of Joelle Ogletree was terminated by the school district when the community was struck with Scandal after hearing the rumor of Mrs. Ogletree participating in sexual intercourse with at least two of her students. The story became a national headline, and Mrs. Ogletree appeared on various TV shows, such has Hannity & Colmes on Fox News and Dr. Phil. On Dr. Phil, evidence was unearthed that Mrs. Ogletree had been exchanging coded messages with the two boys that had accused her of having sex with them. While the boys did, in fact, fail their lie detector tests, the amount of evidence surrounding Mrs. Ogletree was insurmountable in the eyes of GRISD, and Mrs. Ogletree was never hired again at GRISD. While she has been cleared of all charges, the school district still considers Mrs. Ogletree a threat to the welfare of students.
