Embarrassing, Disgraceful & Disrespectful is what that is to the cheerleaders, the school & the district as a whole!

Armijo also stated that several other parents had made similar complaints, which she said were consistently ignored or “swept under the rug.”
Many commenters shared their perspectives on Armijo’s post, expressing their own frustrations.
One described the situation as very troubling, writing:
Very troubling news. So sad things are falling apart with this team because of the bad coach and admin. You are going above and beyond to remedy this. Is this a new coach, different from last year?
Likewise, another highlighted the systemic concerns, saying,
Its Granite School District that fails these kids but having whoever coach them. Multiple coaches physically harm as well as threaten to kill the kids but they do nothing. They sweep it under the rug. I have reached out to these people so many times abd NOTHING. I hope you get somewhere because they need to be held accountable
These responses underline the shared rage, calls for accountability, and support for Armijo’s persistence in seeking justice.
