[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here and I want to thank you for all of the helpful replies. In terms of the counseling out, it is that they are holding the contract and will come up with a plan. No plan has been shared as of yet. [b]The December incident did not involve any other children and had to do with speaking disrespectfully (seriously, not yelling/cursing but speaking rudely and it was dealt with-not excusing DC).[/b] I think it may have more to do with academics but waiting to hear as that was also unclear. I really just wanted to see if this is how things usually happened as we were thrown but this is our first experience with an independent school. Not a top private and one that is typically known to be more accommodating. It is sad that DC loves the school, but we will look for other options. Appreciate the feedback. [/quote]

If any other child heard then it actually did involve other children. We had to pull our child out of public school because our child's public school cohort had students who were really disruptive and would throw things and were so aggressive the classroom would have to be evacuated. No one was learning in that environment. When we moved our child mid-year to a private school that luckily had openings my child came home everyday the first week and commented that no one was mean to the teacher. Our child was truly amazed. Turns out what bothered my child the most was the disrespect that was shown by some other children.

You say it was dealt with, but maybe the school did not actually like how you dealt with it or your attitude when the situation came up. Did you make your child write an apology? Was it just the school who handled it? [/quote]
