I am so sorry this happened to your daughter. The school has an obligation to take steps not to  endanger the students riding the bus. Part of this obligation is to have well trained drivers and monitors to protect the children. Here, it sounds like the school and its employees completely failed your daughter. Not only did they create a dangerous situation by allowing an 18 year old with behavioral problems access to young children, they also turned a blind eye to the situation and failed to discover what was happening. You may very well have a case. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance. John C. Hensley, Jr. The Law Firm of John C.
