[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m surprised a private school is having a kid move on because of this and that they waited until now when it’s too late to apply to a different private school. I’m sorry OP, it sounds like either your daughter’s behavior is severe or your private is horrible. I think I would tell her that she can’t stay due to her behavior and hopefully this will make her amenable to counseling. [/quote] We actually hadn't heard anything about her behavior until yesterday despite three parent-teacher conferences where they claimed everything was just fine. Now, apparently, it's a crisis, so I have to take the afternoon off to pack up all her books, because I'm at a loss of what else I can take away from her. [/quote] This is crazy. Can she stay through the end of the year? Was there an incident causing injury? I’m really sorry and can understand why you are upset OP.[/quote] She's staying through the end of the year, yes. And no injuries. She just burst into tears into math class yesterday because another classmate was singing under her breath and she couldn't hear the teacher. She corned the girl during recess and asked that she stop singing, girl refused, so she cried again on the playground. Straw that broke the camel's back for the admin. And I agree! She should not be crying in public or telling other students what to do. [/quote] Are private schools really this callous? So they are expelling a 10 year old for being immature? Why is a classmate singing under her breath on Math class? I couldn't focus either.[/quote] Yes. Privates don’t need to cater to that one kid who thinks the environment should revolve around their preferences—and then who issues tears to manipulate and intimidate others. It’s too much. And they’re correct. They have 25 other paying students in class to your 1.[/quote]
