Re: Sexual Harassment in school

We are awaiting the pending U.S. Supreme Court

decision on this issue, as far as Federal law is

concerned. Depending on the circumstances, you

may have a cause of action under New York State

law and if the school is in New York City, under

the Administrative Code.
