Is your child safe at school ?
FREE Consultation!
Schools have a duty of providing appropriate supervision to insure the safety of children. This includes all times while your child is in class, on the playground, in the gym, or on school trips off premises. Schools also have liability in permitting children to participate in activities inappropriate for their age or skill level.
Potentially dangerous activities can result in severe injury to children, if adequate precautions are not taken. These include your child’s involvement in the following situations in particular: |
 |
Safely crossing a street at any location where the school is obligated to provide crossing assistance to your child |
 |
Gym classes, cheerleading, and other sport activities |
 |
Science classes where potentially hazardous experiments with dangerous chemicals or instruments are conducted |
 |
Technology classes teaching woodworking, metal crafting, or other projects using special tools and equipment |
 |
Activities at any other place, time or situation where it is reasonable or necessary to have adequate adult supervision |
In the case of accidents involving children while at school, it is possible to show that your child wasn't properly supervised. For example, if there wasn't appropriate monitoring and help in crossing a street safely, and your child was injured, the school is liable and Steve can sue for you.
In addition to insuring a safe environment for children in which to learn, schools are responsible for safe transportation, if your child is traveling on a school bus. Accidents involving school buses include the following: |
 |
Collisions with other vehicles |
 |
School bus hitting your child |
 |
Slip and fall incidents due to slippery areas on the bus floor |
 |
Dangerous or defective conditions involving the bus stairs |
 |
Injuries caused by sudden stops or starts of the bus |
 |
Injuries caused by other children or passengers on the bus |
