The Poudre School District will settle a $16.2 million lawsuit filed by students’ parents after a former paraprofessional was convicted of assault, harassment and child abuse. According to the Coloradoan, the law firm representing the parents of 10 children, said on Wednesday that the district will settle the lawsuit, which was filed in 2024, a few months after Tyler Zanella pleaded guilty to several charges, including child abuse. In a board meeting Tuesday night, the district authorized using Board of Education Contingency Reserves for the settlement.
