OLATHE, Kan. — Olathe South High School parents are looking for change after the principal's resignation, on the heels of student protests about racist incidents at the school . Monday the district announced Principal Dale Longenecker won't return. This follows student protests after the suspension of some students who bullied a Black student with racial slurs . 'It feels like we're moving and getting a little bit done at the time,' student Kiruebel Solomon said. Solomon said his classmates used racial slurs toward him, even crafting a piece of metalwork with the N-word in class.
