[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sounds like your school has dealt with it.  These things have happened.  There is no excuse for physical violence, but at the same time have you found out what led up to this?  If it was something on your child's end (or another child, e.g. someone teasing this kid, and maybe your child laughed...not saying this happened, but just an example) that also needs to be dealt with.  Or was it a totally unprovoked attack?  Either way, it sounds like your school took it seriously and dealt with it.  Letting your child know that you and the school both find the attack unacceptable is enough to reassure your child.  [/quote]

Op here. I believe the school wanted to tone down the incident. We'll observe at this point. If that student doesn't act again, we'll never bring it up. Otherwise, we'll file a bully complaint with regional superintendent. The school questioned that student the reason. It turns out that DD wanted to be friends [DD wants to be friends with everyone, one of the problems of single child] and that student didn't want to. So the attack was to make sure the friendship doesn't happen. The school and us have no words. Of course, that student has her wish granted.
