What is Parental Liability in Minor Homicide Cases about?

The court ruled that the school officials, including the head/president and teacher in charge, can be held liable for damages caused by their students while under their custody or supervision based on Article 2180 of the Civil Code. However, mere members of the school board or those not directly supervising the students are not liable. The rationale is that school officials stand "in loco parentis" and are responsible for reasonably supervising the students to prevent damages.
