Spencer Parrish, a band director at Needham High School since 2021, has been charged with possession of child pornography, leading the district's superintendent, Dan Gutekanst, to place him on administrative leave. Parrish's access to school buildings and digital files has been revoked. Gutekanst assured families that student safety is the district's top priority and that they will cooperate with law enforcement. Notably, this incident follows the arrest of another school teacher on similar charges, raising concerns about safety in the district.
"The safety and wellbeing of our students is the district's top priority, and we will cooperate with all law enforcement agencies as the investigation continues."
"We are committed to being transparent with families and staff, even if the news is unsettling."
