Some California elementary school parents are looking for answers over reported bullying by students in classrooms, causing some teachers to walk out in tears, they said.

The parents spoke during public comment at the Newport-Mesa Unified School District Board of Education meeting Dec. 13. They said a group of 5th graders are behind the trouble at California Elementary School in Costa Mesa and the issue has continued since last year.
