Sabine Parish Superintendent of Schools Sara P. Ebarb, EdD has released the following statement regarding a sexual assault incident at the Many High School last month. 

Following an incident last month involving members of the many High School boys’ basketball team, investigations were begun by both law enforcement agencies and school system administrators. Pending the completion of those investigations, the coaches for the team (Ryan Vines and Darrin Dyess) were placed on administrative leave. The Louisiana State Police indicated Friday that it has found no wrongdoing on the part of the coaches. The School Board investigation reached the same conclusion. As a result, Coach Vines and Coach Dyess returned to full duty on March 3, 2020.
