A teenager and his father are suing school officials in a Kansas City area district, saying they failed to stop name-calling and other bullying that forced the child to drop out of high school.
The suit in U.S. District Court in Kansas City, Kansas, alleges the child's parents repeatedly asked school and district officials in Tonganoxie, Kansas, for help.
Defendants are the school district, its superintendent, members of the school board, the principal of the junior high, and the principal and vice principal of the high school.
The family, whose name isn't disclosed, seeks unspecified damages.
