The court of appeals affirmed a judgment of the district court. The court held that a mother did not have a constitutional due-process claim on behalf of her developmentally disabled daughter against a teacher for alleged failure to properly supervise her daughter, who had several sexual encounters with another student in a school restroom.
A.H. was a developmentally disabled freshman student at Kentridge High School (KHS) in the Kent School District. Pursuant to her individualized education plan (IEP), A.H. was in special-education teacher Francine Wilhelm’s classroom. The IEP continued for the remainder of A.H.’s freshman year. In response to concern expressed by Madhuri Patel, A.H.’s mother, early in A.H.’s sophomore year, KHS held a meeting that Wilhelm attended.
