Legal Question in Education Law in California
do parents have the rights on campus?
My child was aproached on school campus by a parent, and was verbally assaulted by her. Then this parent used her PTA connections to track down my wifes cell phone #, to then yell at her. Is this right? Do the schools generally allow this type of behavior?

Re: do parents have the rights on campus?
parents have rights . . . students have rights . . . not to be assaulted . . . and to have their cell phones and other communication numbers kept private . . .
the school does not have the right to condone this behavior by anyone on campus . . . see an attorney immediately . . . your wife and your child may have a right to recover damages in a civil action but the time limits to do so are extremely short . . .
see an attorney now . . .
good luck . . .
