[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the time: 
Last year: Child in my first grade class threw a chair and an entire basket of stamps at the class because he became upset when I tried to get him to read with me and he told me he is too dumb to read. 
-Year before: A very burly and angry child headbutted me in back after I asked him to stop attacking another child and he would not. I turned to go and ring the office when he headbutted me in the back. I did file for worker's compensation as my back hurt really bad after that incident. 
-Last year in K: a child stabbed his teacher in the leg after he became angry with scissors from her desk. 
-There is a child in 2nd and 4th grade who regularly get very physically aggressive and scary angry and they have to evacuate kids to other rooms for safety measures. 
This is an elementary school in Gaithersburg, not an inner city Baltimore school. I am sure those kids behave better. There are no consequences and parents do NOT care as long as they do not have to deal with these kids all day at home. I will be leaving as soon as June rolls around. I can deal with the pay cut or whatever else I must deal with this but I am too old for this stress. [/quote]

I'm sorry you are dealing with this. It's happening in FCPS too.[/quote]

The number of kids entering school with incredibly high needs is increasing so much each year! How are schools and teachers supposed to manage when the number of students requiring 1:1 attention all day is so high?

Does anyone have data on kids’ aggressive behavior and changes over the last 10-15-20 years?
