[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]David Grosso has re-introduced his bill to ban the suspension of preK students. On the one hand, I'd hope that there wouldn't be a reason to suspend a child that young. On the other hand, I've heard of some really bad behaviors that the teacher can't handle in class. If it's an issue of keeping other kids safe, suspension should be an option.[/quote] I would once have agreed to a blanket ban of suspension of PK kids, but I have experienced some behaviors that many of the other options would not address. Moving the child to another classroom would simply relocate the problematic behaviors. I do think that the school and parents and social services at school need to work together to help the child learn appropriate behavior, but I understand that it's tough to do that in a way that doesn't result in the other kids in class getting ignored or abused by the problem child.[/quote]
