The school’s principal later appologized for the incident and the special education director states that the aide who belted the student to the chair made a poor decision and has been properly punished.
The family’s lawyer said “People need to be aware that these things happen in classrooms, and it needs to stop” after filing the suit in court Wednesday. Hudson no longer attends school.
