[quote=Anonymous]Something similar (except it was a drawing which was the final straw for us) happened to my son last year when he was in first. He is in all the same types of therapies as your DD but is on the spectrum and has an IEP so maybe that made it easier for us to just report to his team which included his assigned assistant principal. We emailed them all and used the word "bullying." I'm not sure where you are now but for us using the term bullying yielded a set of protocols that needed to be followed by the school. They took it seriously and while they couldn't say what happened to the three involved, our son indicated the three were not in the classroom for a number of days so we are assuming some sort of suspension. We also requested the three boys including a former "best friend" not be in his class this year. They honored the request.

All that to say I think you are on the right track to report through the chain. It is not throwing the teacher under the bus at all but rather letting everyone know you are aware of the dynamics and formally requesting a resolution. [/quote]
