Oregon School Had PredaTeachers, School Board Knew And Engaged In Cover Up

Posted • November 22, 2024: It took high school students and a former student's TikTok video to get the attention of the cops and the brass at a small Oregon school district. The message was pretty simple: They're sick of the predateachers at their school—teachers that students have been complaining about since at least 2019. When the dust settled, school had been canceled due to a protest by parents and teachers, two teachers had been arrested and charged with sexually abusing students, the superintendent and principal were put on leave, and the school board chair resigned.

A former St. Helens High student, Doug Weaver, who's now a St. Louis teacher, posted a TikTok video in September in which he related the troubles he'd had as a student with creepy teachers. That brought out multiple students who told of their current experiences with at least one teacher. Weaver, a mandatory reporter, called the St. Helen's police and the investigation began. Choir teacher Eric Stearns, who's 46, and retired teacher Mark Collins, who's 64, were arrested Tuesday.

St. Helens police reported that, "Stearns was subsequently indicted for seven counts of Sexual Abuse in the Second Degree and one count of Sexual Abuse in the Third Degree. Mark Collins was indicted on two counts of Sexual Abuse in the Second Degree and one count of Attempted Sexual Abuse in the Second Degree.
