Parents outraged at handling of alleged hazing incident within Cheltenham School District

CHELTENHEM TWP., Pa. (WPVI) -- Parents in the Cheltenham School District voiced their outrage at the handling of an alleged hazing incident that led to the cancellation of the high school team's football season.

Parents vented to the school board Tuesday night about the district's decision to question the players weeks before notifying the parents of the alleged incident.

The district's superintendent, Dr. Brian Scriven, said previously that he canceled the season out of caution for the safety of every student.

The district is working with police and the district attorney's office as the investigation continues.
