An 11-year-old girl was bullied and sexually assaulted by male students at a Catholic school in Manhattan, according to a new lawsuit.

The suit filed, against the Archdiocese of New York and St. Gregory School on the Upper West Side, claims that the principal, Donna Gabella, did not do enough to prevent the constant abuse doled out by the students.

The anonymous plaintiff is seeking $5 million in damages.

St. Gregory School is a Catholic school for children in pre-kindergarten through grade 8.
