I ngā marama e toru kua hipa, i haere a John McDonald, 6, ki te akomanga i te Kura Tuatahi o Middleton, kāore a Kai, tōna kuri āwhina autism, i te mea he raru kei waenganui i te whānau me te Rohe Kura o Sherwood.

Ko ngā mātua o John McDonald kei roto i te pakanga ki tō rātau rohe kura ā-rohe i Sherwood, Oregon, e kore nei e whakaae ki te whakarato i tētahi kaitiaki hei tirotiro i te kuri mahi a tō rātau tama a Kai i te wā o te akomanga.
