[quote=Anonymous]Re: this post:   I'm a school staff member and there's a student with severe anger issues in my school. We have not had enough parents voice their concern about the situation. There is a lengthy history of violent incidents where both students and staff have gotten hurt, but "they" (the people who make placement decisions) maintain that the current school is the most appropriate placement and that we just need to avoid any of the triggers that might set the student off.

If you are really an MCPS staff member, you should realize by this point that parents have almost no say in the placement of their child. MCPS doesn't listen to parents. 
So, MAN UP. (Or Woman up) and file a grievance against "them" with your Union he next time you get hurt. Tell the parents of injured children to file a complaint against the principal and copy MSDE. The parents of the child may even know their child is not in an appropriate placement and are being stonewalled too, and they can't afford a lawyer. 
You took this job, we hope, to make a difference and to help children. Take a stand and speak out. And if they threaten you with your job, file another grievance.
