BRISTOL, Wis. —A Wisconsin mother said school administrators failed to call 911 after her 9-year-old son was attacked by another student with a razor blade.
In an exclusive interview, Anna Hawrylak told WISN her fourth-grader was standing in line waiting to go into class in September at Bristol Elementary School when another student attacked him with a razor blade.
The gash on the back of his forearm, under his elbow, was deep enough to require seven stitches. However, she said the school never conveyed how serious the situation was and let her son bleed in the nurse’s office for 45 minutes before his dad could get there and take him to a hospital.
“They really didn’t tell me anything that happened in the message,” Hawrylak said. “They said, ‘He has a cut that will probably need to be looked at,’ and that was the extent of the message.”
