Police Search, Budget Vote, and Community Silence | Phoenix News

Police raided Peoria Unified School District offices amid allegations of sexual misconduct against two former Centennial High teachers, sparking community outcry.

Parents demanded transparency and support for the investigation, stressing their commitment to students while calling for clear communication.
