[quote=Anonymous]My experience as a teacher who has had a few violent students over the years is this:
1) blame the teacher
2) require the teacher to complete copious amounts of data and notes over the course of the year and the district does absolutely nothing meaningful to help (or very, very little)
3) hope the kid transfers out
4) if the teacher is incredibly savvy, smart, LOUD and has a supportive admin, they might require the student to only attend half day for a while.  Or, they might provide a TA, but often the TA doesn't help the situation despite their best efforts
5) drag the process out for 2-3 years and then finally place the child in an alternative school.  Then, at data meetings wonder why students aren't learning enough.  (Look you stupid people who have roles that don't actually help kids, when a teacher sends 90% of her energy on one kid, are you really surprised when learning is impacted?)
6) mostly, do nothing and blame the teacher til she quits, and repeat the cycle all over again
