[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the thing that made PPs suggest filing a police report is that it went beyond words and child was assaulted.
Schools (participate FCPS) do too little to response to address/correct physical violence in the classroom. And having a police report on file will not only encourage the school admins to act, but it may also trigger an investigation of CPS if they feel that it is warranted.

It’s not okay for a child to be permitted to hit, kick, or choke another child, whether inside or outside of school. And that behavior comes from somewhere. Police report will allow someone to follow up on what the underlying home issue is.[/quote]

FCPS is not looking out for the victim, they are looking out for themselves. Do what you have to do, as a parent,  to protect your child. If that means lawyering up, depending on the situation, so be it. [/quote]

This is inaccurate.  The school district is looking out for all kids, which includes the victim and includes other kids.  People may not approve of what they are doing now but saying they they aren't looking out for your DC is wrong.[/quote]

Uh no FCPS is not looking out for our kids. We had a serial offender last year in 4th grade who spat on other kids, hit them with her metal water bottle, shoved them etc etc. after each incident (most of which the teacher did not inform parents about) the student was sent to sit with principal. She thought this was a treat. She was a menace the whole year and our school did nothing. Your school and FCPS want to minimize fallout from issues. They’ve stopped telling parents when their kid gets assaulted cause it happens so much now. They know they can’t do anything to these kids that rage and disrupt or anything for the kids that have their learning interrupting and are getting hurt. All they can do is put their head in the sand and pretend nothing is wrong. [/quote]
