Joshua Stamp
High School Principal
(Novemper 15, 2017)
We have been advised that the Lewis County Sheriff's Office is conducting an
investigation of a complaint involving Joshua Stamp. Mr. Stamp is the Principal of the Beaver
River High School. The subject of the complaint is not a student in the Beaver River Central
School District.
To date, the School District has not received any information from law enforcement
indicating that any students in this School District may be directly involved. Accordingly, as of
now, the Lewis County Sheriff's Department is taking the lead in investigating this matter. The
District is cooperating with law enforcement, and is complying with all legal reporting
requirements.
As we understand it, the allegations, although very serious in nature, are accusations at this
point, and under the law, Mr. Stamp, like all citizens, is presumed innocent unless or until charges
are filed and he is proven guilty. We intend to take all steps necessary to respect Mr. Stamp’s
rights, while, at the same time, taking all prudent steps to ensure the welfare of our students.
Mr. Stamp is currently on leave from his position while the investigation continues.
Because this is a confidential personnel matter, I will not make any comments or observations of
a speculative manner in regards to this matter.
also want to ensure the Beaver River community that education will continue and that, in
Mr. Stamp’s absence, the District will arrange for an interim Principal to assume his
responsibilities and other duties. I also wish to thank Investigator Amelio for his cooperation,
assistance and support during this difficult time.
Any information that anyone may have relative to the ongoing investigation should be
shared with the Lewis County Sheriff's Department by contacting Investigator Amelio,
