[quote=Anonymous]My second grader started in a new school this year and there is this one particular kid that have been picking on him (kid A). A few weeks ago I got a call from the nurse that he was playing with another kid and his face is bruised but he is ok. When I picked him up his side face was totally scratched and luckily it didn't get to his eye, when I asked him what happened, he said that kid A jumped on him. after that, he reported that kid A was bothering him but minor things, like pulling his shoes when he was on the monkey bar and it was kid A, but he brought another kid too to pick on my kid that time and other incidents like this happened too.  This morning he didn't want to go to school and he had a bruise on his arm, he said he was pushed from the back and didn't see who did it. When I talked to him more, it seemed that kid A had been still picking on him and at times getting other kids with him to do the same. He told me that that kid A is also telling him that he will rip his guts off and every day he picks one part of his body and tells him that he will rip it off. I told my kid to stay away from kid A, but he said he always finds him and he is so fast and ist hard for my son to run away from kid A. So this morning after drop off I went to the principal office and refused to leave till I talked to someone. The principal deputy was there and she met with me, she heard everything I have to say and she and I went to the class and she pulled my kid and the teacher out and looked at his bruise and asked him what happened, he told her what he told me in the morning. Then she sent him back to the class and was obviously upset from the teacher and asked him how that could that have happened in the class and told the teacher how come she was not made aware of these incidents and why these kids are not being separated. Anyhow she told me that she needs to gather facts about the situation and about kid A and she will call me back and we will meet soon to come up with a plan. 
I think at this point I'm right to say that my kid was being bullied, the first accident, I thought it might be an isolated case, but now I'm sure it's not. This is our first year in a public school and not sure what will happen next. So what do school do in these situations? and if it doesn't stop, what are my options? how can I make sure that my son is not being hurt emotionally or physically? [/quote]
