[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Former Latin parent. This seems very much like Latin. They have a bullying report google form that probably hurts more then it helps, but I almost expect Latin at this point to say kids from *their school* bullying another kid *from their school* is a family issue. Same with the teacher telling him he has no future. My kid told me a bit ago that all the kids are in agreement on this: Latin doesn’t care about its student’s education, and it only pretends to care about their mental health. Remember, this school costs 40k per year.[/quote]

Please go public with this info.  In the lawsuit (contact the plaintiff's lawyers), to the media, to the school.  The family who are plaintiffs here have a huge uphill battle here bc this stuff is hard to prove and support.  The school needs to do a 180.  W/o serious consequences, legally or business-wise (admissions/reputation), they won't change bc they are in the back pocket of some
powerful and $$$ families.  This is tragic. I know a family, the parents of a named defendant.  They are very nice, very liberal, and probably very horrified about their child's involvement.  The parents failed for site, but the school
was the one with the most day-to-day updated info who could have
helped/averted this crisis.  Had they held a meeting with the parents of the now defendants/then accused/perps, maybe more could have been addressed earlier and averted.  To think that a family no longer has a son because of the compounding effect of this is just heartbreaking.
