The Yucaipa-Calimesa Joint Unified School District has agreed to a $15.75 million settlement in a lawsuit brought by the mother of a middle schooler who died after an asthma attack. Adilene Carrasco was a 13-year-old student at Mesa View Middle School in Calimesa. She had a history of asthma attacks, as noted on the home screen of her student profile in the Aeries online student database, according to the lawsuit against the district. The suit alleged the district did not follow its own policies and protocols, leading to Adilene's death.
