Fort Lee NJ, a serious and widening scandal has hit the Fort Lee Board of Education and the school district. A third former student has filed a lawsuit, alleging the district failed in its fundamental duty to protect her from former teacher Howard Sidorsky during her time at Lewis F. Cole Middle School.
This latest suit joins an existing complaint filed in March 2024 by two other former female students who accused the district of ignoring complaints of inappropriate touching and sexual harassment by Sidorsky.
