[quote=Anonymous]Looking for some insight on what I should expect the school to do in this matter.

My son is in 2nd grade.  He went with a buddy to a bathroom near the cafeteria during lunch.  There were 1st graders in the bathroom and the kids were talking.  Two older kids (5th or 6th grade) come in and start yelling for the younger kids to fight each other. One of the 1st graders starts punching my son. My son runs out of the bathroom, back to the cafeteria.  He tells the cafeteria monitor and the assistant principal who is in the cafeteria what happened. He goes to the school nurse, who tells him he is fine because there are no bruises.

No one from the school called us to tell us what happened. No one called the parents of the boy who hit my son.  No one is monitoring the bathroom or trying to figure out what class the older boys are in, which should be fairly easy to narrow down since the boys would have likely come from a class that was in cafeteria at the time. Assistant principal says he believes the boys were just playing around.

My son is fine physically, but bothered by what happened and scared to go to the bathroom at school. I am considering calling the parents of the boy who hit my son, not because I am mad at the kid, but because if my kid was being bullied into fighting another kid, I would want to know about it.
