[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The supports required are not funded. We have poorly funded legal requirements that do not serve most students and teachers well.[/quote]

Np most of these violent students are not special needs but they’re being treated like they have special needs. They’re either not disciplined at all at home or they are victims/witnesses to domestic violence.

I remember such kids spending time in juvenile detention center schools. [/quote]

We're talking about kindergarten here.

It's always hard to interpret these threads. "Violent" behavior is a spectrum. Some level of physical behavior is developmentally expected at kindergarten. That's not to say it is acceptable or appropriate for the situation, but people do need to have realistic expectations.

There are certainly situations where the behavior is not developmentally expected, either in terms of the level of aggression or the frequency. At the k/lower elementary level, those are usually kids with developmental disabilities.[/quote]
