Teen becomes sixth student to sue Minn. school district over bullying

An unidentified lesbian teen has sued the Anoka-Hennepin School District in Minnesota, alleging school officials did not do enough to curb the anti-gay bullying she experienced in middle school.

She is the sixth student to sue the school district over its policy on sexual orientation, which requires teachers to adopt a neutral stance on LGBT issues in the classroom.
