Embarrassing Complaint Against School (made kid w/broken leg crawl in snow) [View all]

Embarrassing Complaint Against School


CHICAGO (CN) - Parents say teachers at an elementary school in suburban Skokie forced their son to crawl through the snow from the playground back to his classroom after he broke his leg.

...

The Chandanis say that on Jan. 3, 2010, snow blocked the path from the school doors to the playground, so that "there was no access from the playground to the school building without crossing the mound of snow."

Their son Rahul fell and broke his leg while trying to get to the playground that day, the family says.

They say that the school employees who were supervising the playground "told Rahul Chandani that if he could not walk, he needed to crawl across the playground and through the school."

The family says neither supervisor called for an ambulance or called the school nurse. Nor did they help Rahul into the school or contact his parents about the injury, the family says: They made Rahul crawl across the playground and through the school to his classroom without any assistance.
