It was a hazardous wire in front of a TV, then said student accidentally broke the TV would the student then have to pay for a replacement?

It could depend on the school district. Many districts across the nation would let it go, treating it for what it was, an accident. Students should not be held accountable if their conduct was accidental. Further, there could be insurance to cover such losses. Your question remains open for four... View More

My son was in the classroom the teacher was in the classroom the Bell just rang 19 year old student approach my son was in his face and shove them and they started to fight my son was suspended from school for rest of the school year
answered on Dec 19, 2017
