As per House Bill 1557, the school boards are required to notify the parents about their child’s emotional, physical, and mental well-being. But, Perez believes that the Clay County elementary school has failed to do so.
Indeed, he was devastated after his daughter attempted suicide by hanging herself in one of the bathrooms at the school premises. Moreover, he believed that his child was ignorant about their religion and didn’t understand his faith.
After a complete investigation, the school district believes that these allegations are not true. Moreover, they claim that they are not going to speak on this matter further.
