Survivors of alleged child sexual abuse at Rosemead High School in California are urging the El Monte Union High School District to fire its superintendent and take action against individuals they believe failed to report the abuse. This comes after the California Department of Justice approved a settlement agreement with the school district following a California investigation into years of failures to protect students. The allegations date back to the 1990s. As part of the settlement, changes were announced but survivors argue this isn't enough.
