PITTSBURGH (WPXI) — The kindergarten teacher who oversaw a science experiment that left a 5-year-old girl with severe burns has resigned. She got the burns at King PreK-8 school on Pittsburgh’s North Side as a result of a science experiment involving boiling water, her family said. Pittsburgh Public Schools conducted an investigation over the past few weeks, and it ended with the teacher’s resignation. That teacher has not been officially identified or charged. Todd Hollis, who is representing the family says the young lady is going through some very obvious signs of trauma, so we’ve assisted in putting her into some therapy. As time goes on, hopefully she’ll be able to get the assistance that she needs. Hollis said the family found out about the child’s burns through a phone call from someone at the school saying the girl had sustained “minor burns” — but they were actually a lot worse.
