A 10-year-old Wisconsin girl with special needs was severely bruised after another student bit her several times on the school bus, according to her parents.
When Lynn Waldron-Moehle went to pick up her daughter, Lillian Waldron, from the bus stop on her way home from Langlade Elementary School in Green Bay on Monday, she noticed that the little girl was crying and holding onto her arm, Waldron-Moehle told ABC Green Bay affiliate WBAY.
Images taken of Lilly by her parents show the upper portion of her right arm covered in several large, red welts. The welts later turned into black and blue bruises, video taken by WBAY appears to show. The district follows a student's individualized education program, so if a student's program requires that a monitor or aide be on the bus, then one is provided, Lori Blakeslee, director of communications and public relations for Green Bay Area Public Schools, told ABC News via email.
Langerfeld and other administrators met with the family to address their concerns, and the school district is conducting an investigation, Langenfeld said.The buses for the school district are contracted out, Kristin Rozek, community relations specialist for the school district told ABC News. Bus drivers are allowed to intervene in the event of an altercation, and all buses are equipped with video cameras, WBAY reported.
"If you can't keep an eye on these kids, and they are special needs, you need to bring somebody in you know to be watching if the bus driver can't do it," Waldron said.
