I was about to say their PR team was doing damage control.

Additionally, MCPS has a horrible record for protecting victims of assaults, be they staff or student. There was that notorious brooming case in a locker room at Damascus high school, involving a perpetrator with a long record of violence, and the many years where MCPS allowed a Principal to sexually harass his female staff and then promoted him, despite formal and informal complaints.

If your child is victim of a crime, please call police immediately. MCPS will not help you. The Principal will lock themselves in their office to call the army of MCPS lawyers. And I hope you have money, because MCPS spends a fortune on their lawyers.

And if your family does find itself in this horrible type of situation and has to resort to a lawsuit, tell your lawyer to request communications for discovery that not only reference your child's name, but also their ID number, as well as all variations on their initials.

Parents coalition has the principal email which came after the post on NextDoor.
The description of the student beinf "prompted" by another student is wacky.

Victim blaming

That was my first thought but my second thought was a sociopath found a special needs kid and prompted them to violate the victim.
The fact that the letter leaves it open to victim blaming is outrageous

Oh come on. Isn’t this two 5 year olds? I have no idea what happened, but it’s not uncommon for kids that age to play “you show me yours and I’ll show you mine” - was there an assault or were kids playing inappropriately and then the boy got blamed for being the initiator? I think there is at least a decent chance that this parent is overreacting based on the school response.

It's NOT common and if your kids are doing this you have a parenting/supervison or something more serious issue.

This. The names should be taken off.

If the parent posted their name to Nextdoor I’d say it’s fair game.

It was their choice, but then OP posted it here with the name to gossip.

Why single out Twinbrook? It's all of MCPS. My friend's kid was stabbed in the face with scissors and absolutely nothing was done to the perpetrator and this was at a W school feeder. She even called the cops but they refused to get involved, saying that it was a school matter. The perpetrator didn't even get moved to a different class.

THen, you get an attorney and sue MCPS.

If it’s 2 kids of the same age then there are privacy issues with the assault. I learned this the hard way in private school. If the perp were an adult it would be different

Also, NextDoor required a log-in. This website is anonymous. There is a minor involved. Inappropriate for this site.

Holy sh*t I feel sorry for your kids.

When a child reports an assault, the first call is medical (if appropriate), then police. The police takes over the questioning. They are trained to do so. The police partners with psychologists if need be.

Actually most police aren't specially trained and they need to bring the child to the Tree House in Rockville that specializes in it. Was it an adult assault or a child to child? Child to child will be ignored even though there should be a huge red flag on the child who assaulted as something is probably being done to them.

I'm OP. If you think "Jay Dee" is a real name you should go back to kindergarten, yourself.

So before you call the police to report a crime (ie, make an allegation), you have to call a psychologist first?

I agree with the PP that if they are the same age why press charges... Just saying... I remember when I was in the 2nd and 3rd grade we played 'purple touch' guess could have been charge if it was present times.

The perpetrator was most likely abused or exposed to inappropriate behavior as most kids would not think to do it. If for anything to get the child help and get the kids in different classrooms. If they do it to one child, they will do it to others. Your parents needed to supervise you better.
