[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do you mean by causing the classroom to be evacuated? Is the student hurting other people? If so you need to get involved. Others have posted re how to get results - see posts up thread.[/quote]

When a student becomes violent, or acts out in a way that is dangerously disruptive, like throwing things and flipping desks, the entire rest of the class has to leave.  They don't remove the child; they remove everyone else.  It's hugely disruptive and upsetting to many kids.  [/quote]
This is nuts.[/quote]

Happens weekly in some classes[/quote]

Happened weekly to DC in both 1st and 2nd grade: weekly evacuations bc a student throwing tantrums and actual objects: chairs, scissors, teachers mug, other kids’ stuff. Kid purposefully broke the teachers computer … twice. I know all of this for two reasons: I volunteered in the classroom and because DC was punched in the face in 2nd  in the cafeteria and it left a mark. Like the poster who said tue kid who hurt hers was assigned a seat in the cafeteria for one week, that was the extent of that kid’s consequences. This kid had an IEP and two lawyer parents. My DC has inattentive ADHD and — even without the physical assault — was totally underserved because of tue chronic disruption. [/quote]
