Student safety should obviously be a top concern of schools, especially in this day and age when schools may not seem as safe as they once were. With that said, a Tampa elementary school seems to have taken the issue a bit far after a young girl with knee problems was denied using her crutches due to a "communications" miscommunication involving a school policy about having a doctor’s note for such devices.
The result of the school being too overcautious: the girl’s knee was damaged even more significantly and her family has notified the school of its intention to sue:
• School Nurse Takes Crutches from Injured Student.
