Student voted out of kindergarten class receives $350,000 settlement

The case of Alex Barton, who was voted out of his Morningside Elementary kindergarten classroom three years ago, has officially ended with a $350,000 settlement.

U.S. District Judge Donald Graham approved the structured settlement and dismissed the case Wednesday, documents show.

About $150,000 of the money will be paid in a structured settlement, starting in 2020, when Alex Barton is 18, and continuing until 2032. The remaining $200,000 will be paid within 30 days.

The settlement is with the St. Lucie County School Board and the St. Lucie County School Classroom Teachers Association.
