MELVILLE, N.Y. — The mother of a 10-year-old girl suspended for bringing peppermint oil to her Commack, N.Y., school Monday says she is considering legal action if school officials don’t apologize and revoke her daughter’s suspension.
Sara Greiner, 10, a fifth-grade student at John Mandracchia- Sawmill Intermediate School, was suspended for one day after bringing organic peppermint oil to school and putting drops in her water bottle and several classmates’ water, said her mother, Corrine Morton- Greiner, 46. The district called it “an unregulated over-the- counter drug.”
