'Concocted': Marietta City Schools Denies Allegations of Discrimination, Whistleblower Retaliation

The Marietta School District has formally refuted claims made in a federal lawsuit by Sarah Barbour, director of the Marietta Student Life Center, regarding racial discrimination and whistleblower retaliation. The district categorically rejected the allegations as unfounded and incorrect. Barbour's lawsuit alleged that budget reductions at the center, which she attributed to its support for LGBTQ+ students, constituted discrimination. Contrary to these claims, the district asserts that no budget cuts were implemented and that any financial adjustments were solely focused on enhancing instructional time. The legal proceedings are set to continue, with the discovery phase extending until August 29th.
