[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need to get the principal to step in and come up with an intermediary solution while a different placement is being worked on. This is not good for your kid to be constantly not meeting expectations. There are all sorts of solutions. They can send an extra person into the classroom to help manage things, like a student teacher or the school psychologist or assistant principal. They can make your child principal for the day, and have them shadow the principal, to give them a break from the classroom environment, which sounds to be stressful. Or gym teacher for the day. They can pull your child out of the classroom if there is a particular time of day or triggering event that is difficult, perhaps having the school psychologist spend one on one time with them. They can brainstorm and come up with new and better figits, if that’s something that may be useful. These are all things that our public school did when DC was having behavioral problems in elementary school.[/quote]

It depends on what you mean by misbehaves. If your child has a BIP seems like most incidents are disruptive somehow. Can you elaborate? Are you seeking a new placement? 
These are good stop gap measures but first you need to figure out yourself what you think of the current placement and what your goals are here. Your goals cannot be to just stop the emails because obviously there's stuff going on that the teacher feels compelled to write about. Either the teacher needs help, your child needs help or your child needs a new placement.[/quote]

OP here. The reported behaviors are:

-used glue stick as chapstick and put it all over his face
-ate play doh
-went into girls bathroom 
-throwing paper towels on the ground
-scribbling on desk
-drawing on self
-taking another child’s food and/or water bottle 
-drinking the teacher’s coffee
-repeatedly touching the classroom TV
-refusing to sit down at his desk or join circle time 
-tearing his papers instead of turning them in or doing them
-putting hand soap in his water bottle and shaking it in order to create bubbles
-opening and closing the window in the classroom
-wanting to play with blocks instead of doing the classroom work

I emphasize with your post OP and understand how stressful it is to receive daily reports of behaviors.

Like everyone here says, document it for appropriate placement and accommodations. Your school is not meeting his needs. Reach out the to principal to ask why his IEP and BIP are not being implemented.

Secondly, what interventions are in place outside of school? Has your son been diagnosed with any disorders or disabilities? Is he being treated with either private therapy and/or medications? If not, seek private evaluations from a developmental pediatrician or psychiatrist.
