[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC was pushed from behind by another child and was taken to the clinic- ripped clothes and bleeding.  What are our rights on what we can expect from the school?  How high can we take this?  isn't there a basic safety component?  these are young ES kids.. [/quote]

What can you expect from the school - nothing unless you ask for it.

I would start with talking to the teacher to understand what happened.  I would probe - have incidents similar to this occurred before.  What are you doing to ensure it does not happen again?   If they blow you off, escalate.

[b]You can also bring it up to the PTA and see if you can get it as an agenda topic to see if there is a larger issue that people are not talking about or doing something systematically to address[/b].[/quote]

You want to bring up to the PTA that a child pushed another kid ONCE?  Are you kidding me?

Yes, please - go ahead and label a little kid as the "mean kid" for the entire school.  That is appropriate adult behavior. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?  We are talking about young children here...[/quote]
