[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obviously this disruptive child's needs are not being met by the school.  A child who is properly supported would not be acting this way.  Why not call the school and ask them to get special education involved and properly support this child?[/quote]

My child was a disruptive force.  
We had outside evaluations done and he needed special ed services.  Local school was not inclined to support until higher / central level became involved.  What a difference it has made.    I offer this to say, this child (and family) may need help.     And helping the child will in turn help all the classmates who are suffering the daily disruptions etc right now.  Reach out to the family and support them in having their child assessed (functional behavior asssessment at a min.)    [/quote]

What kind of evaluations did you have done? I'm asking because our son, who is in first grade, is having problems with behavior in school and as much as we've tried to work with the school and try to find ways to stop the behaviors, they continue. We don't know what to do, but the school isn't acting like it's a major deal. I had a meeting with the principal, teacher and counselor and they all seemed to think it was typical 6 year old behavior. I've worked in the school system and know that his behaviors are not "typical." We just don't know where to take him to get evaluated and don't know what to get him evaluated for.[/quote]
