An elementary school teacher is in the hospital after being attacked by a Sutter Creek, CA, parent over the schools mask mandates. A district dad came back to campus after picking up his daughter and confronted the school principal. He was angry his daughter was forced to wear a mask inside.
When a 6th-grade teacher tried to intervene, the argument quickly turned physical. The 6th-grade teacher was left bleeding with bruises and cuts to his head and face.
Dr. Gibson sent a letter home yesterday to the entire district about the attack, expressing her disappointment
