Elmhurst D205 Gives $20K In Settlement With Family

ELMHURST, IL – Elmhurst School District 205 is giving a student's family $20,000 as part of a settlement.

Earlier this week, the school board voted unanimously for the six-page agreement. Patch obtained the heavily redacted document through a public records request.

In return for the money, the family agreed to withdraw any claims against the district. The two sides pledged confidentiality, except for when the law requires disclosure.

It is unclear what issue the family had with the district.
