Spectator filed a complaint against school district, superintendent, assistant superintendent, principal of high school, and the Director of Maintenance of schools, seeking recovery for personal injuries allegedly sustained when she fell on a sidewalk as she was leaving a graduation ceremony at high school.
The Court of Appeals held that:
- School district did not waive its sovereign immunity by purchasing liability insurance, and
- Alleged duties of school officials to inspect, maintain and repair school district property were discretionary, and thus, individual school officials were entitled to qualified immunity.
