Parents say their daughter Krystal Mattis , 9 , has autism spectrum disorder and epilepsy.

They were eager for her to try school full-time this fall after years of half-days in school.

But district officials said she couldn't take a mid-day dose of her medical cannabis on school grounds.

"She just deserves to be at school a full day and have her medicine like any other kid," mom says.
