Suit Against School Board

A West Virginia woman is suing her local school board for forcing her deaf daughter to attend a particular school. Regina Pine says she wants her daughter, Ariel Depp, to attend the school next door to their home, South Charleston High School. But the the Kanawha County Board of Education is making Ariel travel to Capital High School, where Pine claims an interpreter harasses her verbally and intimidates her. The board says Capital is the only high school in the county equipped to teach deaf children and the school's principal says the stories of harassment are made up.
