Level I investigator's conclusions:

The complaint is being dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

Physical abuse was alleged, but no allegation of injury was made.

Physical abuse was alleged, but no evidence of physical injury exists and the nature of the alleged incident makes it unlikely an injury, as defined in the rules, occurred.

Sexual abuse was alleged, but the alleged actions of the school employee, even if true, would not meet the definition of sexual abuse in the rules.

Alleged victim was not a student at the time of the incident.

Alleged school employee is not currently employed by this school district.

Alleged incident did not occur on school grounds, on school time, at a school-sponsored activity, nor in a school-related context.

The complaint has been investigated and concluded at Level I as unfounded.

Complaint was withdrawn.

Insufficient evidence exists that an incident of abuse, as defined in the rules, took place.

The complaint has been investigated at Level I and is founded.

The investigation is founded at Level I and is being turned over to Level II for further investigation.

Investigation of the complaint was deferred at Level I and referred to law enforcement at this time.

The investigation is concluded at Level I because the accused school employee has admitted the violation, has resigned, or has agreed to relinquish any teaching license held.

Current status of investigation:

Closed. No further investigation is warranted.

Closed and referred to school officials for further investigation as a personnel matter.

Deferred to law enforcement officials.

Turned over to Level II investigator.
