[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So sorry for your child and family...
There is an office in DCPS that will help find a placement at another school if your child has been assaulted at their school. Please call and see if there might be a spot available at a school you would be happy with. You might at the same time talk to your Cluster Superintendent - each Instructional Superintendent in DC has about 12 schools under their management and apparently they like to keep "dirty laundry" under their own roof and might be helpful in transferring your child to another school that they manage - they may be able to pull strings to do that. They usually have a mix of schools - some great, which may or may not be close - not sure if transportation would be an issue. Also, if you keep your child out - you must email your school everyday saying your child is sick or they will come after you on truancy. I would also reach out to your school board person - they have no real authority, but good to document and they sometimes will help with getting others to respond.
If they make you send him to school - if you are able(as you said you could home school, so assuming you do not work) go to school with him and tell the school you are going to be in the classroom - I do not think they can make you leave.
Good luck - hope all goes well. I am not a fan of Capitol Hill schools.[/quote]

This all sounds great, except that DCPS truly does not care about your kid. You can either go private or move. [/quote]
