Robert and Rose Bronstein, the parents of Nate Bronstein, have filed a Second Amended Complaint (SAC) against the Latin School of Chicago (LSC) (IL) detailing additional particularized allegations of LSC’s failures in properly addressing Nate’s reports to LSC of cyberbullying by LSC students that led to his suicide. The SAC maintains LSC intentionally minimized and re-categorized Nate’s report of bullying, failed to notify Nate’s parents, neglected to have a bullying prevention policy compliant with Illinois Law, and refused to provide Robert and Rose with Nate’s school records. LSC’s refusal to remediate cyberbullying turned an avoidable tragedy into irreversible heartbreak that implicates LSC, Former LSC Headmaster/Current Rye Country Day (NY) Headmaster/Current NAIS Board Chair Randall Dunn, Current LSC Headmaster Thomas Hagerman, NAIS, and NAIS School Alumni.
Read the details of the Second Amended Complaint against LSC:
The tell is always the refusal to cooperate in good faith and the cover-up. Cover-ups are as bad or worse than the crime itself because they show the perpetrators not only realize a crime occurred, but also understand their culpability. An admission that LSC did not abide by state reporting laws while Randall Dunn, Board Chair of NAIS, was at the helm of the school would not only implicate Latin School of Chicago, it would also implicate the operations and agenda of the entire system of the National Association of Independent Schools. Makes you wonder why families are attempting to block Covenant School (TN) shooter Audrey Hale’s manifesto writings from being made public. Now more than ever as “student safety” is added to Independent X School’s agenda so NAIS can expand its authority, the response of NAIS and NAIS School Alums Snap Founder/CEO Evan Spiegel (Crossroads, CA) and Meta Founder/CEO Mark Zuckerberg (Exeter, MA) will shape the road ahead.
In the meantime, brave parents like Robert and Rose Bronstein are holding on and staying in the fight for all of our children.
