Dale L. Andreason Allegations
Andreason Arrested, Accused Of Abuse. “The victims of Andreason’s alleged abuse were not his students — however, an individual who knows him said Andreason admitted to having “fantasies about children he teaches but has not acted on them,” according to the police report. Andreason is a first-grade teacher at Elk Run Elementary in Magna. A spokesperson for the Granite School District said he was placed on leave on Sep. 16, several days before his arrest when they were informed about the investigation and the “disturbing information.” There was “no indication” that Andreason had abused any students, the district said in an email to the families of Elk Run students. Still, anyone with information or concerns was advised to call West Valley City Police at 801-963-3300.” [Fox]

Elk Run Elementary: Andreason Placed On Leave. “We were recently notified and wanted to alert you regarding some disturbing information from the West Valley Police Department, wherein our 1st grade teacher, Mr. Andreason, was arrested this morning on some very serious charges involving inappropriate contact with a minor. We are still gathering information on this matter, but we were notified several days ago that an investigation was ensuing and he was placed on leave at that time. It is believed that the suspected illegal behavior is limited to family members. Student safety is our primary concern and we take these charges very seriously. We have received no indication from WVCPD that our students were involved. However, if you have further information or concerns, we encourage you to contact the WVCPD. They can be reached at 801-963-3300. We thank you for your patience and support as we work through this issue.” [Elk Run Statement]
