[QUOTE="Bunny, post: 530433"] Just out of curiosity, what was so bad about the clap chant? Were the kids saying something that was inappropriate? Is there a rule against starting them? I don't see why something like a clap chant is so bad unless the words were bad or they are just not allowed. First thing is that I want to say that I am sorry that your are dealing with this. I have several people in my family who are teachers and from what I know from them, in cases like this the school district will ALWAYS side with the teacher. If the student in question gets punished they assume that the teacher is always in the right and that the student is always in the wrong, even though there was a classroom full of students who said that your son did not start it. Their opinion will always be the students will defend another student, and unless the punishent is something so horrendous that there is a public outcry about it, there is not alot that you can do about it. I don't agree with it, but unfortunately that's just the way it is. Why was your son singled out? Has he had other problems in school? Does he behave in the classroom? Have there been other run ins with the principal? [/QUOTE]
