Bullied girl reportedly pleaded for help at school, sent back to class

A young teenage girl took her life away because she was bullied and harrassed by other classmates in her High School. According to the article the young girl brought this issue to the attention of the administrators in her school, but they did nothing to help her. Instead they sent her back to class ignoring her accussations. Because this matter was not taking into consideration the issues escalated and later on resulted in her death. This article was shocking. There are many students out there are being bullied and abused in their schools and may also have thoughts of ending their lives. It is sad to know that school officials have the audacity to ignore these issues that are so common among young adults in schools. A child like this may need a counselor in addition to help from the principal or teacher. This is a form of mental abuse; therefore it lead to her death. I found this article very intesting and it left me astonished. This incident happened in early January, but the charges are still being pressed on the students who allegedly harrased and bullied her.
