Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Texas

teacher assault

My son was recently grabbed by his teacher which left a red mark on his arm. My son was not in any physical confrontation that required this kind of restraint. My son left the classroom and reported the incident to the principal. The incidident was recorded on tape and witnessed by the class. The principal reprimanded the teacher and moved my son to another classroom. I believe there is also a written report. Should I sue the school for allowing this teacher to use unreasonable force on my son?

Re: teacher assault

Usually school districts are immune from lawsuit. You might sue the teacher. Good Luck.
