[quote=Anonymous]Can some of the above posters actually name some of the schools you discussed above if you are comfortable? While I think sometimes school placement sometimes doesn't work out even with both the families and the schools  trying hard and having good intentions, the school's reactions regardless whether or not the child is a good fit is unprofessional and meanspirited to say the least. They could have had a frank discussion with the parents and say we"ll try this strategy for a certain amount of time, the parent gets appropriate help for their child as well. If the situation does not improve, then work with the parent to find a more appropriate placement. In terms of the other children getting away with mean behavior, I think that reflects more on parental involvement and school culture. If children are in an environment where there are no consequences for picking on the weaker or different, then that reflects very poorly on that school environment, and I think it would be good to avoid it.[/quote]
