Lots of School Law Issues in Lexington

Since it became clear that I was moving to Lexington, I have added its paper to my daily reading list. As I have been reading it over the months, I have been noticing that Lexington has a lot of school law issues cropping up all the time. Today, for instance, a mother is suing a school over her daughter being bullied enough to send her to the hospital. This is not a ground-breaking legal issue and I have posted before on these types of lawsuits. But what is striking is the consistency of the cases coming out of Lexington. Now, perhaps it is just a great education beat reporter for the Herald-Leader, but either way it promises to be an interesting city to be in as an educational law instructor. As I use the blog as part of my teaching, you can expect to hear lots of interesting educational law stories from Lexington in the coming years.
