Flora Martinez, a sixth grader at Duane D. Keller Middle School, took her life on May 7.
A 12-year-old girl killed herself after spending the school year being relentlessly bullied, according to her family — who claim the Las Vegas school district shot down their request to transfer their daughter.
Alice and Joshua Parker, Flora’s father, placed blame on Clark County School District and said the district failed to protect their little girl.
Flora’s family said they reported the preteen’s torment to the school’s assistant principal, but the bullying from her classmates continued.

The bullies set their sights on little Flora almost immediately at the start of the 2023-24 academic year, Alice said.
It was so severe that Alice Martinez submitted paperwork to transfer Flora out of the middle school — a request the CCSD allegedly denied on Oct. 6, 2023.
