An Aurora Public Schools paraprofessional is on administrative leave after accusations of slapping a special needs child. Police say the alleged incident happened on a school bus on Monday. The district says it takes the matter seriously, and officials want to emphasize they do not tolerate inappropriate behavior by staff members. Attorneys for the young boy's family say the slap left a red mark on the child's face. The case has been turned over to Arapahoe County prosecutors.
