A former Ballard High School student who was sexually assaulted by a fellow student in March 2018 filed a lawsuit against Seattle Public Schools on Tuesday, alleging the district failed to protect her from the “reasonably foreseeable dangers” of being attacked in an unsupervised, all-gender bathroom.
“Unsupervised, unmonitored and poorly designed bathrooms at schools are
notorious for providing a secreted location for misconduct, bullying,
assault and sexual assaults,” Kays wrote in the lawsuit. “Washington
Courts have long held that an unsupervised and unmonitored bathroom
presents a general field of danger for students that schools must
protect against.”
