A mother whose teenage son was driven to suicide by bullies at his elite private school wants its former boss to be fired from his prestigious new job for allegedly failing to prevent the tragedy, or discipline her son’s tormentors.
Rosellen Bronstein, 48, filed a $100 million against the Latin School of Chicago and its former principal, Randall Dunn, 57, claiming the administrators ignored her son, Nate’s, plea for help after months of relentless bullying.
After finding out that Dunn was leaving to be the head of the prestigious Rye Country Day School, in Westchester, New York, come July, Bronstein called for Dunn to be canned.
The grieving mom said: ‘I am warning all the parents of (Rye Country School.) This is going to happen again. Their kids are not going to be protected in that school under Dunn…’
‘Dunn does not care about students,’ Bronstein told the New York Post. ‘He cares about himself and his career. He’s a fraud. He is dishonest.’
Dunn earned $750,000-a-year while at the Latin School, and will almost certainly be on at least $1m-a-year at Rye, with the educator he’s replacing currently on a $1.18 million salary.
