Attending School Shouldn’t Be at Risk to Life and Limb

If you think your workplace has conflict, you ought to talk to the 15 year-old O.D. Wyatt High School student who is now in critical condition. The student was on his way to the cafeteria when two teens confronted him. The sophomore attempted to flee, but his assailants caught up with him just off campus. When the school security officer attempted to stop the attack, one of the school bully’s began fighting with the officer, allowing his partner-in-assault to continue kicking the defenseless victim as he lay on the ground.

The two instigators at O.D. Wyatt have a date with juvenile court, certainly, but they may also face civil sanctions for assault.

Dallas-area Teacher Sexually Assaults Student

Amy Schilling, a 33 year-old teacher in Carrollton ISD, was arrested last week on charges of sexually assaulting a juvenile. Carrollton police acted on a report that the R.L. Turner High School teacher had an inappropriate, illegal relationship with a minor.

Teacher-student sexual abuse is a greater problem than many people realize. According to the Counter Pedophilia Investigative Unit (CPIU), 15 percent of students, more than 7 million juveniles, are sexually abused by a member of the school staff during their career. Disturbingly, most cases are never reported, nearly half of all perpetrators are repeat offenders and only 15 percent of teachers are fired.

Has your child been the victim of a teacher’s sexually assault? You should talk to the injury experts at Fears | Nachawati. The teacher should be held civilly as well as criminally responsible, of course. But is the school district also complicit in protecting teachers instead of students from the repercussions of sexual assault? It’s important to raise this question – and many more like them – as you consider how your family should respond.
