I’m just not seeing how a sixth grader can “torment” another sixth grader for an extended period of time about something like that.

As someone else mentioned ruined, with the advent of social media, memes, etc. you can get tormented pretty badly.

I mean look at what we(adults) do to other adults that do/say something silly? We capitalize and torment that person and turn them into a meme. Do you think kids wouldn’t be as bad, if not worse?

It’s really shitty if you think about it.

You’d be surprised. Some people struggle with things most people could never imagine. I used to work with special needs/ troubled children. The youngest child I ever worked with was 7 when she first expressed suicidal ideation. She wanted to jump out of her second floor bed room window to “disappear forever”. She got help through multiple organizations and last I know she is still around and in her 20’s now.

shite I saw like this is why I have absolutely no chill for any adult who hurts children.

This was the extent of ICE “bullying”. She was in earshot of a kid telling a group of Hispanics about ICE and deportation on the bus a couple of times, and the kid got disciplined. It wasn’t even directed at this girl. Later other kids said it may have happened more directly at her another time. The school also said she seemed to have a positive rest of the week after talking with her and disciplining the kid.

The school district said the school's principal visited Carranza's class on Jan. 30. The class was discussing the topic of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which has been conducting arrests across the county.

Superintendent DesMontes Stewart did not say in the statement why the topic was being discussed or whether it was part of the approved curriculum, but said Carranza told her principal a student on her school bus had made remarks regarding ICE and deportation to a group of Hispanic students.

The next day, a bus driver confirmed the incident, telling administrators the remarks were directed at a group of Hispanic students and Carranza was not seated with the group but was within earshot. It was found during the investigation that it happened more than once.

The district said it investigated and the student who made the remarks was immediately disciplined and that Carranza appears to have a "positive remainder of the week."

On Feb. 4, the district was informed by a family member that Carranza had been hospitalized due to an accident. She died several days later in the hospital.

The mother is pushing bullying because she was aware of home issues and thoughts of self harming, and she ignored them. Plus CPS is involved.

The district shared that during student interviews for the bullying investigation, multiple students said Carranza was not only a victim of bullying, but that she confided she'd been "inappropriately touched by a family member" but she asked them not to say anything.

The district said because there are four other school-aged children in the home, Gainesville ISD was legally required to report it to CPS, which the district said is investigating. The Texas Department of Family and Protective Services told NBC 5 that CPS cases, by state law, are confidential and could not confirm an investigation.

After her death, the district said it learned Carranza shared thoughts of self-harm with a cousin, who allegedly told Carranza's mother, but that information was never shared with the district, which would have provided resources and intervention.

The district said in a one-on-one meeting with a school counselor in October, Carranza shared concerns about getting into trouble at home and that her siblings called her names, but that she never said anything about being bullied at that time.

Carranza's mother maintains she was never informed her daughter sought counseling or that she was part of a group to help with coping skills.

The district said in the statement released Wednesday that the social-emotional learning (SEL) group, led by a school counselor, helped Carranza and four other female students with coping strategies to manage distressing emotions. The group met twice in October, twice in November and three times in January according to the district.

The district said Carranza's mother signed a permission slip for her to participate. Carranza's mother demands to see the document.
