What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Mississippi.
My daughter is mixed; (black & white). She is horribly bullied at school by her peers and staff.
One of her teachers purposely changed her grades at will becuase of her race. She makes comments like; "What color are you?" "You know black women don't like your kind." You think you're so pretty don't you?" "My children are mixed too and my daughter acts like you." She does not have mixed children.
I have copies of the grades she gives my daughter in "study hall" and she changes them if she is mad at her. She constantly yells at her and other children. She has been noted to throw things down the aisle of the classroom, grab hold to children's desk and shake the desk in a rage, ranting "NOOOOO." My daughter recently asked for a DVD case, full of movies back since school was ending for the year soon. The teacher alluded that the DVD case was stollen. Right after that, the teacher went to the priciples office and made claim to a FB posting my daughter posted that stated: "Can you believe that trick kicked me out of choir?"
The school suspended my daughter for 3 days stating the posting was an act of violence or threats against a student or staff. Really??? She is intentionally trying to prove that my daughter is a troublemaker.
I have reported my concerns to the school way before the recent suspension and nothing has been done. Please advise of where I need to go from here. Can I sue the school for the DVD's that are missing? How can I proceed with legal action against this teacher? My daughter has been showing signs of suicide and depression because all of this. This to me is what happened to the child who committed the crimes at Collumbine High School. Why to teachers and administrators let these type of things get out of hand at schools? Yes, there is a bullying/harrassment policy in place at the school but nothing is ever done. Please help me!!!!
