[quote=Anonymous]I think OP and everyone here knows enough to know this is a crappy teacher and a crappy school. Suspending a 1st grader who is thought to be special needs and trying to get him/her expelled is not only cruel, it's illegal. Even if he does not have an IEP, he is clearly suspected of having a disability which would allow him protections under IDEA. Everyone knows that expelling or suspending a child that young only hurts the child and for what? Because they don't want to do more work? What kind of human being thinks like this much less one that is a teacher?

What school district OP? You should tell the parents what you heard and let them sue the hell out of that school.

[quote=Anonymous]Unfortunately many schools refuse to evaluate students with obvious disabilities because they don't want to be accountable for educating them pursuant to an IEP. Luckily even if the child does not (yet) have an IEP, he can still be protected from discrimination - and if the parents can show that the school should have known that he was a child with a disability, they can have IDEA protections as well. 
Agreed, a child hitting a teacher is not acceptable. But if he is a child with a disability the school should do a FBA/BIP. Suspending and or expelling the child does nothing to teach proper behavior. [/quote][/quote]
