[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP,  my 2nd grader has also been suspended twice but each time it was for a matter of hours, not days, and there was aggression to teachers involved.  I didn't see anywhere that you have discussed this with your principal.  If you are not seeing eye to eye with your principal you can contact your cluster supervisor and you can find that phone number on the MCPS Special Education webpage.  4 days is exceptionally punitive.  Is your child working on grade level?  What about all the make up work?  Personally I would raise hell for a four day suspension, especially since, for little kids, it means nothing to them but a vacation.  Have you considered getting an advocate to help in this whole process?[/quote]

OP here:  I did discuss this with the principal and even offered to spend the day with him on Friday (since he was getting his testing done on Thursday and wouldn't be there anyway) and she rejected this offer.  I have written to her again appealing the suspension and have a meeting tomorrow morning.   I will try contacting the cluster supervisor.  He is above grade level in all subjects, reads 2 years above and is in enriched math.[/quote]

I would escalate it as that is extreme.  One day, ok, but 4 days is insane.  I'd ask for a different classroom when he returns.[/quote]
