Jefferson County Public Schools removed an elementary school principal from his daily duties last month, forbidding him from having contact with staff, parents and students.
A Louisville public school principal with a history of abuse complaints retained a leadership position within JCPS after a district investigation found no evidence he abused any students, parents or teachers.
The lawsuit claims Duan Wright had a 10-year history of violence that went unaddressed by JCPS, including punching, grabbing and dragging students and threatening both children and teachers with violence.
