The school CAN and should do something about the behavioral problems. It's actually their responsibility. But APS does not do a good job with this.[/quote]

What CAN the school do?  I'm really curious.  Our school has children who are sent out of the classroom every day because of behavior issues.  Obviously, their parents either can't figure out how to control their 8 year old or don't care to because we've had issues for years with certain students.  We aren't private, where we can kick them out.  We aren't a choice school, where we can send them back to their home school.  What can we do that WILL do something about their behaviors?[/quote]

My child is in S. Arlington and had a kid with behavioral issues. The school got him a para that shadows him during class and on field trips. [/quote]

That’s great. Please know, however, that your situation is the exception, not the norm. There aren’t nearly enough aides (or the funding for them) for all the kids with serious behavioral issues. The child in your school may have qualified for this through sped.[/quote]
