Anonymous wrote:From what I understand of the situation, the complainant child was instigating a lot of hostility. It remains unknown whether the alleged verbal statements as outlined in the complaint are accurate. The facts around the images are unknown (if they were in fact even directed at the child). The complaint was interesting insofar as copious email and text evidence should be available but very little actually quoted.
It would appear that the school found the child either responsible for some, most, or all of the activities and that the other students were exacting peer to peer consequences.
Where the administration failed was thinking that this is appropriate in 2025 and that there would not be consequences aimed at them for being permissive of vigilantism.
I do not find the alleged comments of the headmaster credible. Without a recording or a witness, these seem twisted and misremembered intentionally by the complainant parent. I suspect the truth is the headmaster said something like “we made a mistake thinking this was a good fit for someone with severe autism”.
It sounds like absent the alleged events, the child was very troubled and autism may not be the entire issue.
Agree.

It tells me the last 3 posts are probably Jane Doe trying to resurrect shade on the school to try to keep this thread alive with frivolous talk.

Told you. Any post that calls into question the systemic behavior of the Catholic church is deleted. What does that tell you?

Kathy Bates character in the film Primary Colors comes to mind, "They call me the dust buster."

Please you can always sue, you go to the doctor's get a report, go to a shrink get a report, and sue. You can also call the police. Assault is assault. There is always recourse it just depends on how far you are willing to push and pursue.
Devil is in the details and depends on the state. Sovereign immunity may apply.
Well, I wouldn’t have sued the kid or his family because I don’t actually blame them. And I don’t really blame the school because they are dealing with the least restrictive environment requirement/ manifestation of disability, etc. I blame the systemic factors put in place by the powers that be, but they are immune to suit.
It sounds like you didn’t want to deal with it. There are many entities you could have made a case against depending on the situation and what you were targeting for “blame” - responsible individuals at the school, the school itself, the school district, the county…
The folks that passed IDEA….
IDEA doesn’t not give license for a child to beat up another child.
