A federal judge approved a settlement this week between the Davidson County Board of Education and the parents of a student who was suspended for using the term “illegal alien” in class.
Leah and Chad McGhee’s 16-year-old son was suspended for three days last year after making what school officials called a “racially insensitive remark.”
The parents filed a lawsuit against the Board of Education shortly after the incident. Now, court documents show the parties have reached a settlement.
The school board has agreed to issue a public apology for the “mischaracterization of racial bias” of the student’s comments and pay the family $20,000. It will also correct the student’s related school records.
The agreement specifies that its terms “are not to be construed as an admission of liability or wrongdoing” by either party.

The worm is getting his comeuppance.
… or if it was the slimeball media suppressed it.
how is illegal alien racist?
sounds like the school is racist
“””how is illegal alien racist?
sounds like the school is racist”””””
Especially since that is the official term.
The individuals responsible should be required to pay the settlement, not the Board of Education.
Insurance company will pay.
They should be forced to pay more than that. All of their combined salaries plus 200% for emotional damage should suffice. Then they should have to name a building or program after the kid. They should also all be required to read in unison their apology over the school intercom, while simultaneously broadcasting to every other school in the state, daily for the rest of his school career.
Criminalien works fine.
Yes, and I think the kid settled too cheap.
I would have demanded a public apology, my attorney’s fees paid, reinstatement and record expunged, $50,000. and a limo ride to school for my remaining days/years at that school.
A daily reminder of how racist and stupid these administrators are.
North Carolina Piedmont area. Stories should be specific about locations as there’s a few Davidson Counties. Nashville is in one of them.
Davidson County, North Carolina, voted heavily for Trump. Unlike Davidson County, Tennessee (Nashville).
Its a 100% legally and technically accurate statement.
We are now worried about illegal aliens “hurt feelings” by accurately describing them? I sure am not.
Good! Except $20K should be taken from every school board member who voted for such an awful thing.
Maybe one day American voters will realize that school board members are elected and that they can be unelected.
The right people on the school board can change laws and fire the superintendent who likes to be stupid.
A little more info.
The stupid leftist school administrators couldn’t care less. They are not paying out the $20,000
I would have used the term Criminal Invader
