More details to this question:
Hes 10yrs old, kicked multiple times, and strangled with seatbelt. Never checked by nurse at school and no police contacted. We were never called by school so we could take him to doc. And never informed of incedent. We only found out after school and by a witness to the event. When we contacted school we were brushed off.

A notice of claim needs to be served on the school district within 90 days of the incident. If this is a private school you have three years from the date of the incident to sue for negligent supervision and personal injury.
