For everyone reading this important article.

A commenter named Shannon, works in conjunction with the Saugus Union School District superintendent Colleen Hawkins and Doxes people who stand up to the partisan and identity politics practiced by this school district. Beware of Shannon!

The SUSD also leaks private information about students and parents to Shannon.

Hi, Greg Aprahamian. I do not work for SUSD. But I do have children in SUSD. I have only spoken to Dr Hawkins a handful of times in my life, while having 4 children in the district. I have never received privileged information from anyone in the district. With all of the records requests your friend Nathan Imhoff has claimed to make… surely, someone can provide proof to these claims?? Otherwise I will consider yours and Nathan words as what they are, slander. Your claims have rooted from a woman named Karen Lynn Widman who commented in your CSPE group and ”bet her lunch money” that I work for the district. Since then, you have ran with this misinformation. It would seem fact and truth has never been your strong point, Greg. You hear something that fits your own narrative, and you run with it.

You are an individual who thrives off of harassing women of a school district that you don’t belong to. You have been recorded screaming at people at board meetings and disrespecting attendees and staff. You spend your time making harmful claims against people and disregard those you feel are “leftists” as not deserving of respect.

I will remind you that it is possible to hold differing opinions in a respectful manner. But what we cannot do is spread lies about people to support a narrative. If you have to lie to prove a point, you don’t have a point to begin with.

I have obviously become your group’s new target- I have even more screen shots of Karen Lynn Widman calling for your CSPE group to attack me. I have friends within that group who have sent me all of your organized communication against me and against members of SUSD. It is very sad that you, as adults, are behaving in this manner.

Your hatred towards anyone who does not share your own politicized beliefs is very clear. School districts are to remain nonpartisan and I support and advocate for responsible governance. This means that your extreme conservative agenda holds no place in SUSD. Leave our district alone and maybe find a new hobby, Greg. Thank you.

Sure thing Goldie Dox. Why do you believe you are the speech police? You don't get to determine who gets to speak in public meetings. You do a lot of jabbering for someone so fragile who is constantly complaining about being harassed. You have engaged in illegal doxing and cyber harassment of anyone critical of the district. No one ever said you worked for SUSD; we have already proven that you coordinate your social media posts with Hawkins. The school board should be nonpartisan; that is why we are so upset at Hawkins retaliation to anyone that questions her; how many times did both parents and teachers say they fear reprisals from Hawkins in the last meeting?

Hello. This is Shannon Gerson, the person you have mentioned in this article several times. Making blatantly false claims about people, without any proof, is not “accountable”. I have had the owner of this Accountable Scv website, Nathan Imhoff, blocked since last year for very concerning behavior.

I do not operate ANY website, specifically not a “cyber harassment” website or account. I do not condone or support cyber harassment, on any level, towards any person, even those I may hold disagreement with. The claim that I am the “prime suspect” of such a website is absolutely false. It would seem this is a statement made out of projection… as this website, Accountable SCV, is clearly guilty of cyber bullying, harassment, retaliation, intentional misinformation and slander. The owner of this webpage has a known history of this behavior.

Secondly, I am not the main point of contact for my children’s superintendent. I do appreciate her in her role and believe she is placed in an impossible position by certain community members who perpetually target and harass her. If it is going to be suggested that I am “the main point of contact” for the district superintendent- then it would be appropriate and necessary for the writer of this “article” to link ANY supporting evidence to such a claim. This is another false statement that breeds conspiracy, further attempts to paint the picture that the district is secretive, all whilst intentionally slandering an SUSD parent’s reputation.

Lastly, I have never doxxed a child. The instance you referenced is where I repeated a High School student’s first name in the comment section on a news article. The news article was directly reporting a story on the same high school student who posted a racist video on their own social media account, under their own name. This first name was connected to a circulated SnapChat screen shot that was produced and publicly shared by another person. The TikTok video that this high school student posted (themselves) went viral on state-wide news level. Even though the high school student we are speaking of made extremely harmful and serious racist remarks and death threats towards students of color- I absolutely agree that ALL minors deserve privacy. I apologize for repeating that student’s first name in the comment section of that article. It was not my place to do so. But please be accurate that this information was already very much out there and circulating.

I am not a board member who represents children. I am also not an activist nor have I ever claimed to be a champion of children. I am simply an SUSD mother trying to do my best to support an inclusive and welcoming environment for all. In regards to Anna Griese releasing private information about an elementary school student during her public board report, I suggest the writer of this article read up on minor privacy as well additional protections in place for SPED students prior to suggesting a release of privacy must include a student name.

Taking things out of context to support a narrative is troubling and it is not the least bit “accountable”. But, instead of being angry (which I am sure is the reaction the writer was seeking), I will choose to feel sorry for the person behind this webpage. To be filled with so much hatred that they find it morally acceptable to spew lies and conspiracy about others who disagree with them is a very sad way to live a life. I hope you find much needed peace… because even you deserve peace.

If you hold genuine concern with the district- that is your right to do so. I can guarantee you that more people would listen if you dropped this type of behavior and prioritized leading with truth. This is not the way.

TL;DR

A few notes from skimming.

Why are you so hung up on the people that run this site? Didn't you release an AI-written article entitled "The Power and Importance of Anonymous Speech in Calling Out Bad Behavior" clearly, we have some power and importance since you showed up to cry about it.

If you were blocking someone for "concerning behavior" why would you show up to antagonize them here? The attempts at painting critics as dangerous would hold up more water if you acted like you believed what you were saying. It is like people claiming they were stalked and have no evidence even though they have a 4k camera on their person at every hour of the day. They also know the next question is if you felt you were being stalked, why didn't you call the police or go to the police station? They don't want those questions, so they make thinly veiled accusations without details because they know they are lying and just trying to damage an opponent's reputation.

If something is untrue and in writing, it is called Libel. The definition of Libel is a written or oral defamatory statement or representation that conveys an unjustly unfavorable impression. Just claiming something is Libel doesn't make it so. You are welcome to produce evidence to prove something was untrue, this substack is the only one providing supporting evidence.

Lol, statements made out of projection, you say? Didn't you write a ChatGPT-generated column entitled "Right-wing extremists, and their projection?" The day after we released this 😂 You are terrible at hiding your "voice," you are raging because you shot your shot, you doxxed your opponent, and no one cared.

You and every other SUSD clown claimed Anna Griese released private information, which has been proven entirely false; all the while, you doxxed that girl from Valencia High. The definition of Doxxing is "to publicly identify or publish private information about (someone), especially as a form of punishment or revenge." There was no public good in releasing her name, and then you spread gossip. You did this to punish the girl and to have her harassed by people. That is undeniable.

Every time you attempt to smear people that are a part of this project, We will go even harder at the skunk bureaucrats you are trying to protect. For example, when you doxxed Nathan, we released five articles in 5 days for you, Shannon. The more you fight, the more it tells us we are over the target.

Thanks for reading and helping make AccountableSCV a success.

Shannon, You we're the ONE that post private information about the child who was involved with the disturbing incident at North Park on the signals Facebook page for all of SCV community to read. I didn't know the child involved was a special needs until I read your comment !

( we have seen the screenshots of it )

Yet you and Rebecca decided to turn it all on to Anna.

Both of you failed miserably ! So much for caring for the children ....

neither one of you even thought for a moment how all the other kids who witness the disturbance "felt " neither did the school district nor did ANYONE think about the "what if" that could have happened in the 2 hour lockdown.

You're a funny chick you go on with your comment above how it's okay to have disagreements. Yet every time you don't agree with someone else's perspective you decide to block them instead of stopping and try to understand someone else's perspective.

And claim the person is displaying "concerning behavior" or harassment. Gerson came here, we didn't go to her.

January 31 2023: Anna Griese read a letter at a public and recorded board meeting discussing an incident involving a single student in obvious emotional duress. During that reading she provided the elementary school name and she also provided the name of his special needs program that he is enrolled in. I won’t go into details, but the things said about this child painted him as an animal and even suggested he will one day bring a weapon to school. It was highly upsetting and inappropriate.

After a local media outlet REPORTED on the board meeting, based on the information Anna had released, I (and many others) reposted and commented on the article, outraged, calling for accountability on the release of private information regarding a Special Needs student’s bad day.

Because, you personally, are not familiar with the program Anna Griese mentioned at the January 31 meeting to be a special needs program- does not make it ok or right for a board member to release such information… or really ANY information on a special needs student’s bad day. It really is unacceptable.

On February 14th myself and 20 other concerned parents and staff spoke out against Anna’s action. The room was packed with people who were upset with Anna’s actions. There were only a handful of people condoning Anna’s actions, who are coincidentally your’s (and Anna’s) friends.

You can spin it however you want to attempt to paint myself as you wish. But it won’t ever make it truthful, Leeann. I genuinely wish you peace. You are caught up in a fight that has been solely created by yours and your friends falsehoods. This is my last comment as I will no longer be entertaining your conspiracy. Please stop attacking the women of our district and let them do their jobs. Thank you.

What's a woman Shannon?

Hello, Leeann Miller. You and I both know that Anna Griese released information of that child. Placing any blame on me is inappropriate. Anna Griese stated this child’s elementary school name, which you just repeated here again, and she also released the name of his *exact* special education program that he is enrolled in at the January 31st public and recorded board meeting. This is public record. What she did is put this child and his classmates at direct risk. After Anna Griese chose to release that information publicly, I (and 20 other upset parents and staff) spoke out against her actions and that release of private information about a special needs child and his obvious emotional duress that required support and care. Not rumor and gossip. Shame on you. If Anna did not release that information, no one would have even known about that child’s bad day.

I do not block people I disagree with. I block disrespectful individuals who lie about others for sport and spread conspiracy. Like yourself, Nathan Imhoff, Greg Aprahamian, Karan Carville, Karen Haleen and Karen Lynn Widman. You are a pack of organized bullies who spread intolerance and conspiracy. You perpetually harass women of my children’s school district and spread hateful rumors about individuals YOU disagree with. If you don’t want to be blocked by people- then perhaps you should practice what you preached here. Have the day you deserve, Leeann Miller.

Shannon patricia laine gerson ,

Anna shared a situation that took place at a school from concerned parents. Anna did not share the gender of the child nor any private information about child.

That again was You , Rebecca and the 20 parents that spoke at the board meeting. Release all of that information.!!

If you truly cared about the children you would still not be going on and trying to point fingers at Anna or Anybody else that was there who witness the situation and they themselves felt in danger .

You should been concerned about the actual situation that took place that afternoon on the school campus , the children who witnessed this , how the school and the district handled it.

So let me get is right ....

Because I personally am a concerned mom and about the overall safety of our children in susd elementary schools you want to pin me as being a bully and harassing people ??

You're a bit turned upside down with where you have put your fake focus on.

I have no one blocked on social media because I can mentally handle other people's difference of opinion that I do not agree with.

In all honesty everything that you posted above trying to pin me as a liar and a hateful person harassing people pretty much sound exactly what you have been doing Sharon Jo Cohen & Shannon patricia laine gerson.

Unfortunately, you are deflecting and placing blame… and not just on me. I have screenshots from your CSPE and Parent Union groups that places this exact blame on other parents and staff who spoke out against Anna Griese for her actions. This is retaliation and you and your friends are clearly grasping hard to place blame on anyone else but the person responsible for her own actions. Anna Griese made a poor mistake and a simple apology would have gone a long way and helped our community, and those affected, heal.

Leeann Miller, if you have to stretch truths to make a point… then you never had a point to begin with. If you have to lie and slander parents and staff of the district to support your narrative… then you do not have a narrative worth supporting. Same goes for your friends: Karen Lynn Widman, Karen Haleen, Karan Carville, Len Unkeless, Greg Aprahamian and Nathan Imhoff. You are small group of bullies and you have a clear agenda to disrupt and attack SUSD. I have screenshots on all of the organized attacks and conspiring that has taken place in your “private” extremist facebook groups: Committee To Support Parent Engagement (CSPE) and The Parents Union of Santa Clarita (formally Make Schools Normal Again- or as community members called it “MAGA school page”).

I would assume board member Anna Griese is becoming embarrassed that people like Nathan Imhoff, Greg Aprahamian and yourself, Leeann Miller, (and the others listed above) are the sole voices supporting and representing her in online social spaces. Is Anna Griese aware that the three of you (and the others listed above) target, harass, bully and slander parents in her trustee area who spoke against her behavior a few months ago? Is she aware that the three of you (and others listed above) cyberbully, harass and slander staff of the school district? Further, does SUSD board member Anna Griese condone this behavior?

Say what you want, lie as you will. But I will always stand up for what is right. There is nothing you can say here, or anywhere else, that will stop me from advocating for responsible nonpartisan governance that supports inclusion for ALL students. Not when it comes to MY children,

THEIR school district and THEIR academic success. The truth is: you are making yourself AND Anna Griese look bad.
