1Opinion of the Court
EBEL, Circuit Judge.
After being suspended and driven home without parental notification, a special education student at a public school committed suicide. His parents brought a cause of action against the school district and various school officials alleging violation of their deceased son’s civil rights. The district court denied the defendants’ motion for summary judgment on the issue of qualified immunity. Defendants now appeal. Plaintiffs cross-appeal the district court’s grant of summary judgment against them on some of their claims. We affirm in part, reverse in part, and remand.
