Boy kicked out of school because he has gene for cystic fibrosis - TODAY Health
If he does not pose a threat to the other student why should he be moved?
A California boy has been ordered to transfer to another middle school because he carries the gene for cystic fibrosis, even though he doesn't actually have the incurable, life-threatening and non-infectious disease. His parents have gone to court to fight the move.
Their son, 11-year-old Colman Chadam, was told last week that hed have to transfer from Jordan Middle School in Palo Alto, Calif., to a school three miles away because he posed a risk to another student at school who does have the disease, according to TODAY.
I was sad but at the same time I was mad because I understood that I hadnt done anything wrong, Colman told TODAY. He added: It feels like Im being bullied in a way that is not right.
