Shocking video shows cowering third grade girl, 9, being pummeled in the head by two boys on the school bus – as school administrators tell her mom to enroll her three kids elsewhere
Horrific footage shows a schoolgirl being brutally beaten by two boys on a school bus – as they rain down punches on her head.
The parents of the 9-year-old are now planning to press charges against her attackers after the sickening footage was posted online.
None of her fellow students at the Coconut Palm K-8 Academy in Homestead, Florida, intervened in the attack.
Instead, her peers filmed the merciless attack from the two boys and started cheering them on throughout the attack as they watched.
The schoolgirl’s parents have said they will demand criminal charges against the two boys who attacked their daughter.
She told Local 10 that violence in and around the school is overwhelming administrators, with those in charge urging her to enroll her three children in a different school.
Her mother claims that her two older children have also been bullied during their short stint at the school, adding that they have done nothing to help since they joined on January 9.
The Miami-Dade Schools Police confirmed that the offenders were arrested, after they responded to the incident around 4.10pm on Wednesday.
Authorities said that they assessed two children for injuries and then released them into the care of their parents.
In a statement, they said: ‘The safety and wellbeing of our students is of the utmost importance.
‘This school district goes to great lengths to promote the values of restraint and respect as well as using social media responsibly. We ask that parents reinforce these principles at home.’
Her mother added: ‘All ages are on that bus and it’s overfilled. It’s very crazy because there’s all this yelling going on in the bus and the two adults on the bus – the bus (driver) and the bus aide, only sit in the front.
‘We’ve had issues before with my son and the kids on the bus, and also in the cafeteria and at dismissal.
‘I already drew the line, and I was also on the phone with the district — I spoke with someone from the district — and the only thing they could advise me of was to continue to speak with the principal and pull up a bully report.
‘You’re taking care of our children — you’re still responsible for them. That’s what you have a job for.
‘Not only to teach them, but if you see anything going on in your classroom, you don’t necessarily have to physically intervene, but call somebody who can. Because if somebody’s child ends up dead, it’s on the school.’
