Ferndale High School volleyball coach Patti Hoelzle's contract won't be renewed next season after the conclusion of a third-party investigation into allegations of harassment, intimidation and bullying within the program.
Ferndale School District notified Hoelzle of the decision on March 24. Hoelzle previously received a statement from the district on Jan. 13 that there would be an investigation into the allegations, which had reached Ferndale Superintendent Kristi Dominguez.
