Lincoln Park High School administrators removed and basketball season suspended amid misconduct investigation

Ashlee Rezin Garcia/Sun-Times

Chicago Public Schools removed Lincoln Park High School’s interim principal John Thuet and assistant principal Michelle Brumfield and suspended the school’s boys basketball season until further notice because of ‘‘the severity of the misconduct allegations involving the team.’’

The boys basketball coach Pat Gordon was suspended in early January.

The allegations that led to the ouster of school officials and the coach, and the suspension of the remainder of the boys basketball season, included multiple instances of sexual misconduct, retaliation against witnesses, lying to families and financial mismanagement of the athletics program, Chicago Public Schools officials said at a meeting at the school.

CPS officials are investigating the matter.
