[quote=Anonymous]This happened to my son in K. Super disruptive kid, constantly being redirected and scolded, made the whole class miserable. It happened in January. Moved him from another class with a less experienced teacher to my son's class that had a 30 year plus teacher and an assistant. My son's entire behavior changed for a few months. He hated going to school. He was just so overwhelmed, and the assistant was your typical old school who thinks screaming and yelling and threatening solves everything. 
It was really frustrating because adding him increased the class from 26 to 27 and then another new kid came in and it became 28 but the other classes had 24 and 25. 
The "problem" kid is in my son's current class (2 years later) and he has calmed down a bit, but I can tell that it still bothers my son. His current teacher is also a threats type but she only hollers, not yells. Basically, my son shuts it out and asks for jobs or draws or stares out the windows.

He had a fantastic teacher last year so I try to cross fingers next year we can hopefully get a better classroom management teacher and peer group. If it continues, we will consider homeschooling. I love the school overall and there is great representation and my son is generally excited to go to school. He did not feel that way the last half of K.
