The aforementioned makes no sense. Officials just like CPA's should be INDEPENDENT. if you are an employee of said school then it stands to reason you CANNOT work games for that school.

In our association if you are affiliated in any way with a given school you will not be assigned to officiate any games involving that school. By affiliation I mean you have relatives that work for the school or you work in another capacity at that school. A prime example is a school teacher. That school teacher who is also an official will not be assigned any games where he/she teaches.

In a nutshell I would not talk to the school secretary but directly to the AD. Also, IMO, the AD would want to know what kind of info is coming "from his /her shop" that could land him/her in "hot water"
