[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, is it gym class?  I have wondered about whether I could get my DC out of gym and out of the teasing environment by having DC exempted from class and take enough sports credit outside of school.  I wish MCPS did that.  Does anyone know if they do?[/quote]

The solution, if this is a problem for your DC, is to raise hell and to make MCPS deal with the fact that kids are teasing (maybe bullying?) your child.  I completely understand your desire to pull your kid out, but really, why should he miss out -- the kids that should be pulled out are the ones who's behavior is unacceptable.

I don't think MCPS deals with behavior and bullying well.  There seems to be a lot of blame the victim (or the victim's parents).  But, really, imagine if the real world functioned like MCPS: criminals wouldn't go to jail, but the victim of the burglary, harassment, etc. would be sent away and told to ignore the criminal.

Get the bullies out of that gym class and let your kid enjoy his time at school.[/quote]
