自闭症男孩课桌竟被安排在厕所间 午睡睡在厕所地板上

  她说:“我的儿子感到羞辱、尴尬,对这种让他在厕所间学习的不人道建议感到厌恶。”

  古德温家雇佣的律师香农·麦克米尼米(Shannon McMinimee)说,卢卡斯此前从来没有遇到过类似的问题,他可以去图书馆或其他合适的安静的场所学习。

  “I can‘t believe that there was anybody that thought this was a good idea,” McMinimee told CNN。 “There’s a lot of different ways you can accommodate students with disabilities without humiliating them。”

  “我不敢相信有人认为这(在厕所学习)是一个好主意,”麦克米尼米告诉CNN。“有很多不同的方式可以在不羞辱残疾学生的情况下为他们提供帮助。”

  而贝灵汉公立学校监督人格雷格·贝克(Greg Baker)在回应此事件的声明中表示,这个厕所间是用作储藏室而非使用中的厕所。

  The idea of putting Goodwin‘s son there was “an example of staff trying to seek a solution to temporarily repurpose a room,” Baker said。

  贝克说,把古德温的儿子安置在那里的想法是“工作人员试图暂时改变房间用途、寻找解决方案的一个例子”。

  Due to limited state funding “schools often have limited space to meet students‘ instructional and social-emotional needs,” he said。

  由于州政府资金有限,“学校通常只有有限的空间来满足学生的教学和社会情感需求,”他说道。

  对此,拥有15年处理教育法相关案件从业经验的麦克米尼米表示,学校首先应该做的是向古德温一家道歉,而她已经开始了侵权索赔。
