[QUOTE="Masta, post: 37899, member: 308"] Marg: what you suspected was right!!! the only thing the music teacher did was kick the kids out of her classroom. everything else that happened was my sons 5th grade teacher. That teacher is backing up her own seven week suspension off all the classes I mentioned. my son has never had an infraction, I never ever have been called up from the school with complaints. Ive looked through my sons school reports for this year (I have terms 1-3) we are on the 4th term here. All 3 school reports say he is "Excellent" when it comes to class/school rules. He is in the school chess club has won 3 yrs in a row in the district tournament. He is should be in 4th grade but skipped a grade because is he is very smart. his 5th grade teacher who we are discussing and having problems with has told me he is so smart he could be in 6th grade right now and still wouldnt have any problems. My son is generally a nice kid, he is not the kid she is making him out to be. No kid is perfect and Im sure he has his buddies he like to chat to in class (which is normal). I know my son hasnt been acting up. She is using him as a scapegoat. There is no way this teacher is going to admit she is at fault here for over reacting and being unjust. Im about to email the teacher and the Principal asking that my son be sent back to music, art etc tomorrow. if they have a problem with it to notify me asap so I can contact the school district so I can hold a meeting with all who are involved (the other parents, music teacher, principal & the 5th grade teacher). I have a funny feeling the Principal is going to back the teachers up here, I want to involve the school district (from past experience I know this needs to happen) because I want to know the school policy when it comes to how many of the classes the kids are legally allowed to keep my kids from and what sort of discipline is normal in this situation. my husband has emailed the 5th grade teacher (she is a 55yr+ lady never married) his email: Miss teacher, To answer your first question, "NOTHING." I think the kick out of the classroom is the problem. The other teacher should solve his/her own problems. Sending kids to another teacher undermines their authority, making the problem worse in the future. Check the policy when youre not sure what to do, and if its unclear help to make a policy update. The few words he spoke surely arent worse than drug possession, which only get two weeks. I've never heard of any behavioral problems before. Even at parent/teacher conferences you give nothing but praises. I need to know when there are behavioral problems. After all I am the parent and really the only one permitted to issue punishments. I think that you should apologize and have those three kids back in regular classes on Monday. They deserve to be educated. I would like to be notified about future kick-outs. Call me any time. i will keep you posted. its 10.28pm sunday night here. tomorrow is school. i hope the crap dont hit the fan tomorrow. Masta [/QUOTE]
