As a result, the team departed the location without being served.The Athletic Director worked with coaching staff to ensure students were safe and fed at another venue.BPS would like to reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that our students are treated with dignity and respect while traveling with Browning Public Schools. This incident is being fully investigated and appropriate steps will be taken, including legal steps, if necessary. We appreciate the support of our community and remain committed to advocating for our students and upholding the values of Browning Public Schools.PLEASE join me in being SO PROUD of our student-athletes and coaches who responded with dignity even when the management of the Ronan McDonald's did not treat them with dignity. BPS will not stand down and walk away, this matter will be fully investigated and pursued to ensure this treatment does not continue.BPS COMMUNITY, let's join together and wish ALL OF OUR TEAMS the best as they compete this weekend!Sincerely,Rebecca Rappold, District SuperintendentThis is a developing story. ...read more read less
