Mom Sues School District over a) Guns in School, b) Bus Accident or c) Little Precious didn’t make the Cheerleader Squad (Hint: Texas)

Texas Mother filed a ferderal lawsuit on the Carrollton-Farmers Branch schools, arguing the district did not sufficiently discipline cheerleaders who she says bullied her daughter.

The girl’s mother maintains her daughter did not make the squad because of the harassment that led up to tryouts and possibly unfair judging.

The lawsuit refers to a group of cheerleaders dubbed the Six-Pack. The nickname echoes that of the notorious Fab Five cheerleaders of McKinney North High School, whose exploits led to national headlines two years ago and a recent made-for-TV movie.

School board President John Tepper said the lawsuit has no merit but didn’t rule out possible plot for a spin off of Saved By The Bell.
