[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There haven't been behavioral problems per se, but last year DS' teacher bullied him in a pretty significant way - I had photographic evidence that I took to the Principal, who I thought handled it well at the time, but now has totally dropped the ball/I feel is he dicking around. I can't go in to more detail as I don't want to out myself/my kids.

I do know a lot of the kids and where they were placed, which is what makes me think he is in a "lower" class, in my view unnecessary and to his detriment.

I appreciate the advice - I have no idea how to navigate this.

OP, I have no idea what the situation could be, but it sounds like an issue that is at the principal or,school counselor level.  I don't see that the classroom teachers could help you understand the class placcement determination.  I know that the principal and counselor are involved in the decision at our ES.  The resources teacher is as well, but unless your child is SN/IEP, not sure that would help you.  Not to be discouraging, but I don't see a lot of movement, but if you are going to see a change, usually it comes a few weeks into the school year.  For example, when a child who is not yet six by Sept. 1 enters school, the child is automatically placed in kindergarten even if they completed kindergarten elsewhere.  Then at about six weeks, the child is assessed and moved if they deem it appropriate.  I hope you can work things out to the point where you are comfortable.[/quote]
