That would be an overreaction.  The bully report should be filed.  The child is also self advocating by speaking with a guidance counselor.  Hopefully, this will resolve things quickly.[/quote]

There is a case in Huntington Beach CA where a kid punched another kid (this kid was sight impaired) in HS.  The perpetrator was arrested on a misdemeanor battery charge and released to his parents. [/quote]

Different circumstances.  At this point, the OP's situation should be handled by the child's school.  [/quote]

How so?  The case in Huntington Beach occurred on school grounds.  OP's case occurred on the school bus.  Just because OP's kid is in MS doesn't mean it's not assault if he was repeatedly punched.  Some MS kids are bigger and stronger than me.[/quote]

Unless times have changed, transportation to/from school is considered school grounds. [/quote]
