An incident at Madison East High School has prompted an investigation after allegations surfaced that a staff member fed dog food to a student. The school district has placed the employee on leave while they conduct a thorough investigation.
A concerned mother reported to Channel 3000 that her 15-year-old son, who is autistic and non-verbal, was given wet dog food by a school staff member in a recent incident. She mentioned receiving photographic evidence of the event from another staff member at the school.
