[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My oldest was diagnosed with anxiety and PTSD from her 3rd grade classroom. [b]She had a violently disruptive classmate who caused the kids to evacuate several times a week. [/b]

We pulled her from school the rest of that year and then sent her to private the following school year. I was much happier with the student behavior in private school. She didn't have any classroom evacuations. [/quote]

My best friend used to be a public school teacher in our city. She experienced the same (and worse). Her daughter is a year older than ours and she sent her to private. We did the same and have been very happy.[/quote]

My now-3rd grader had a safety plan in 1st grade because she had a friend who would target her during extreme behavioral situations and throw/hurl things her way. She would have to self-evacuate to the classroom across the hall. This was at a private school, so the only difference from public is that they could counsel the girl out- but it took 6 months because there wasn’t a strong framework for escalating intervention as there might be in a public school. She ended up in a special behavioral support classroom in our zoned public.

I don’t think private or public is a magic solution; many kids everywhere are in a bad place.[/quote]
