Jodi Safris said her daughter's trust was broken at school when teachers and administrators failed to protect her from bullying and sexual assault. Her daughter, who turns 20 this week, is still grappling with the situation that happened six years ago, when she was a middle schooler in Urbandale. She has a hard time getting out of bed each morning, remembering to take her medication or learning new tasks at work, her mother said. But there was a bright light earlier this month when a jury found the Urbandale Community School District was negligent in a case that Jodi Safris and her husband, Michael, brought against the district and an Urbandale Middle School teacher in 2022. But Safris fears the verdict will not go far enough to protect other children in her daughter's situation, and the family fears a similar thing could happen again.
