Re: zero tolerance
You need to geta restraining order against the other student.
Re: zero tolerance
You might be successful in a law suit against her and the school. Her parents are liable for up to $15,000, but if you can show they knew about her behavior and did not stop it before your daughter's act of desparation, they might be liable for negligence without the $15,000 limits for being her parents. You need to see an attorney who specializes in suing school districts.
Good luck.
