Our cheerleader coach is abusive to her cheerleaders and students. She has a picture of Hitler on her desk and refers to him as her "idol". We (the parents) have no way of protecting our children from this coach. Here is a short list of what our children have been put through: Making beginners do back hand springs on concrete, denied a child medication for a migraine, refused to allow girls food during camp, after a mistake at competition told girls they embarrassed her and she wouldn't be seen with them (sat away from group giving ugly looks to the group), makes girls write down each others weaknesses and then reads them aloud adding her own thoughts (ex: told a girl that she had low self esteem and no confidence), told one girl she was nothing and no one cared who she was or what she could do, only speaks to her "favorites", punishes the squad if a parent complains (ex: she wouldn't let the girls put on their sweats during a football game in 30 degree weather. Made them sit in their uniforms freezing), tells them they aren't good enough to perform during half time and makes them sit out, when questioned about complaints from parents she lies and the principle backs her up ( the principle was her advisor while she was a student at another school). Now if she threatens the girls that if a parent complains they will be removed from the squad (Her favorite saying is "I only need one cheerleader anyway."), will not meet with any parents or return phone calls, if a cheer is not called with 60 seconds of the previous one ending (and she has a watch) she punishes the girls by making them do lunge laps on the side lines at games, etc....etc.....etc.....
If they find out I am looking for parents rights to deal with this coach and principle, it will be taken out on my daughter by not only them, but other teachers within the school. They will keep her from making cheerleader next year and the other coaches will make it hard on her.
