The suit stems from the  2016 sexual assault of a freshman at a house party by multiple Croton-Harmon High School students. The suit claims that the victim was extensively bullied for coming forward, that the student faced retaliatory grading by Croton-Harmon High School teachers, and the school did not comply with Title IX because it did not separate the victim from her attackers. The suit also claims that the school denied the victim's repeated requests to change school.
