Can I sue my school?

There are people in that school with felonies? Is the other half of the building a penitentiary?


I'm not really into the law or anything, but I'm pretty sure that you'd be able to sue because they falsely advertised. However, it'd be a bit of a risky move, because things can be quite unpredictable in a lawsuit.
(see ipquarx's post below, yes it is true that you need quite a lot of money if you're going to sue them, and who knows what will happen if you get screwed over)

A church.

He can get his parents to sue them.

Unless his parents have a metric buttload of disposable income... No. Lawsuits are insanely expensive. Tens of thousands of dollars per month for a potentially years long case. His best bet is to get his parents to complain to the school district/schoolboard and hope they can do something about it, a lawsuit is simply not feasible.

Did you not research or visit the school before committing?

I was about to post this. Like yeah, why didn't you not go to the school take a look at it before signing up for it?

Not to mention that he gave it a "second chance". What were you thinking, OP?

You do realize false advertisement is a crime you can Sue for right?

Guys stop saying he should sue already... It's been mentioned multiple times that hes 17 and theres probably like a 99.9% chance that he doesnt have enough money to sue a school for claims of false advertisement. And his parents most likely dont either.

Like other people said though, why didnt you tour the school and just go with what a flyer said?
