A video of Wentzville Middle School seventh-grade student Byata getting chocolate milk poured on her by another student on Tuesday at lunch made the rounds on social media.
Byata's parents, Paul Tripp and Melissa Alan were stunned.
"I threw up. It made me sick, literally," Tripp said.
"Cried a lot, I called him then I cried some more then I was just mad. Pure mama mode at that point," Alan said.
It didn't stop there, several seconds later, the student came back and repeatedly hit Byata in the head.
"Between the milk and the punches being thrown, how was someone not there already to help? The reaction time was horrendous," Alan said.
Tripp said the school called him, explained the incident and advised that Byata didn't need to go home.
