Jewish Family Sues Nevada School District Over Autistic Son’s Antisemitic Attack

Family fights for you when nobody else will. That statement is true for many people, including this 18-year-old boy whose family is challenging a school district in court. All because they believe he deserves better.

The lawsuit went public last year in December and is in the hands of The Lawfare Project. The project is a non-profit that works hard to defend Jewish people’s civil and human rights. According to the attorneys in charge of the case, the student, now 18, endured federal and state civil rights violations.

According to the complaint, the student was non-verbal and attended the Clark County School District. Until he came home with the antisemitic symbol carved into his skin on March 9, 2023. At the time, he was a 17-year-old student at Clark High School.

Attorneys for his family claim he did not get the special education support he should have under federal and state regulations. Court records say an aid should have accompanied him for the entire day, even when the attack occurred.

Most of the boy’s day unfolded inside a self-contained classroom. He took general education classes for 37 percent of the day. According to the complaint, the Clark County School District (CCSD) denied knowing of the occurrence of the incident.

A representative for the school district said, “The district does not comment on pending litigation.” The student is now receiving at-home instruction. But only because the district failed to ensure his safety.

They also failed to teach him skills that could help him communicate his needs and self-advocate, among other things. It made him easy prey for the bullies who left a swastika etched on his back.

POLL—Is Systemic Racism a Significant Problem That Requires Reform in Policing and Other Areas?

His family wants him to remain on home instruction until they find a suitable program for him. According to the complaint, the student has been a part of the school’s autism program since preschool but has barely any educational progress.

“This horrific act against a defenseless Jewish student is a stark reminder of the deeply rooted issue of antisemitism that persists in our society,” Ziporah Reich, the firm’s director of litigation, said.

“Furthermore, the failure of the Clark County School District to conduct a proper investigation into this incident is evidence of the systemic apathy that exists towards Jews who are targeted by hate crimes.”

Those behind the cruel act of etching a swastika into the boy’s back are still at large. They have yet to answer to their crimes, but that may be difficult as the school denies knowledge, and the boy does not talk.

The family also wants the school district to reimburse them for attorneys’ fees, expert fees, and expenses relating to the student’s at-home education.
