Texas Student Suspended For Helping Asthmatic Friend


Story out of Killeen, Texas:

Anthony Ruelas, 15, said his eighth grade classmate was wheezing and gagging for three minutes Tuesday morning while no one did anything.  But when Ruelas did do something, he apparently broke the rules.

According to Ruelas, the teacher was waiting on an email from the nurse and told the class to remain calm and stay in their seats.  Fearing for the girl’s health, Ruelas didn’t listen and after several minutes of inaction, went against the teacher’s wishes to help his friend.

Ruelas’ referral form from his teacher reads in her handwriting:

“During 5th period another student complained that she couldn't breathe and was having an asthma attack. As I waited for a response from the nurse the student fell out of her chair to the floor.  Anthony proceeded to go over and pick her up, saying ‘f—k that we ain’t got time to wait for no email from the nurse.’ He walks out of class and carries the other student to the nurse.” Cont.
