Current Events Week 12

A local Pittsburgh Family has filed a lawsuit against the Fox Chapel school district over food allergies of their son. The family claim that the school did little to help their son with his rare nut allergy and allowed other students to bully him in the cafeteria. The parents also say the school district lied to them when the district said they had a nut free cafeteria table and would provide special nut free lunches. The school did neither and when the students mother called to complain about the handling of her sons condition the district said that if he wanted food at school the family would have to prepare it themselves at home.I think the parents are wrong in this lawsuit because the school doesn't have to legally provide a nut free table or special food.
