Lewisville school officials will hire a 'neutral third party' to review why a 13-year-old girl who thought she overheard a threat was punished. The middle schooler said she overheard a classmate tell another boy not to come to campus the next day. The teen talked with friends and then her mother about what she heard. Administrators wanted to kick the young girl — who is Black — out of school for spreading rumors, according to an account of the girl's experience The Dallas Morning News reported earlier this month.
