Alleged Abuse in Special Ed Program
from Phoenix News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Allegations of severe abuse in Mountain Ridge High’s special education program have erupted, with former staff claiming Hispanic students were denied meals, bathroom breaks, and water as punishment. Whistleblowers say they faced retaliation—being labeled troublemakers, demoted, and forced out—after speaking up. One teacher described being publicly humiliated for advocating students, while another’s daughter allegedly suffered under the system. The Deer Valley School District admits an investigation is underway but insists no one’s been held accountable yet. A major lawsuit looms, demanding justice and accountability before the district’s window to respond closes. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
