[quote=Anonymous]Is anyone close enough with the parents to discuss this with them before involving the police or other legal action?  It is possible that they aren't aware of what is going on? At our elementary school, the school counselor and principal generally do not call the parents regarding complaints made against their child.  I know of one family who heard at the end of the school year that other kids had been complaining all year about their child disrupting class, etc.  The family was very upset that they weren't notified earlier.  As other pp's said, the teachers, counselors and administrators are not going to discuss a particular student's situation with you or other parents who complain.  Also, when you do talk to the school, you need to frame it as "my dc can't concentrate in class, or my dc feels threatened."  If you just go in with a list of all of this child's faults, you won't get anywhere. A final option would be to go above the principal to the community superintendent (I believe each area has one).  Good luck.[/quote]
