A second parent has come forward with concerns at one Milwaukee Public Elementary School. It’s concerns she found so troubling, she pulled her student out a week into the school year before things got even worse.
Two weeks ago, we told you about Brooklyn. Brooklyn’s mother, Johnetta Fort, contacted TMJ4 after her daughter was allegedly pulled out of her wheelchair by another student at Gaenslen Elementary.
Fort shared with us and showed pictures of Brooklyn’s five teeth that were knocked out during the incident.
Jennifer Talley reached out to TMJ4’s Jenna Rae after seeing that story.
“My daughter was actually a classmate of Brooklyn’s in special education room 111. I knew Brooklyn, and I also removed my child from Gaenslen after she was mistreated and injured at school,” Talley said.
Talley’s six-year-old daughter, Franceska, is also non-verbal and uses a wheelchair part of the time, similar to Brooklyn. A week into the school year, Talley pulled her daughter out.
“The conditions I observed at Gaenslen were extremely poor,” Talley said.
