Rosellene Bronstein: Mom of teen who killed himself says school IGNORED bullying because he was White

The parents of a 15-year-old boy who was bullied to suicide in January over a false claim that he was unvaccinated accuse school administrators of ignoring the abuse because their son was white. The principal of a tony Chicago private school reportedly overlooked a harassed Nate Bronstein, 15, who subsequently died by suicide— and the dead boy’s mother wants to warn parents in New York, where the administrator is slated to start a new position next month. Randall Dunn, 57, is the president of the National Association of Independent Schools’ Board of Trustees and has headed the Latin School of Chicago since 2011 but will take over as head of the upscale Rye Country Day School in Westchester, according to the school.
