According to the Sacramento Bee, Oak Ridge High School has disciplined the student who made the monkey sound.

“I legally cannot share the discipline that a student receives other than to say they did receive it. And this student did,” Oak Ridge principal Aaron Palm said in an email to The Sacramento Bee on Wednesday. “I have spoken to the impacted family and apologized to them on the phone and in writing.”

In the family’s statement on Friday, Brian said he is frustrated with the statements he received from Oak Ridge.

“The Oak Ridge principal, who was not in attendance, contacted me by phone days after the incident occurred,” Brian said. “Days after our phone conversation, he proceeded to put out a blatant false statement indicating, I had only complimentary things to say about our girls’ soccer team and coach. The Principals statement is a lie. There has been no true apology about the failures that happened that day.”

The family is still demanding the school to take accountability.

“The truth is that there was no immediate action to remove or even find the student. There was no care or compassion to our daughter who was subjected to racist heckling, and the staff was not disgusted,” Brian said. “An apology would acknowledge that in the moment none of these things happened and the game went on without realizing the severe impact this would have on our child.”
