Are you serious? Belittling a concern about student-on-teacher violence that multiple children witnessed? You're a horrible person.


Again, what do you want to know?

A small number are older, specifically, if students come to the US and have limited English language ability, sometimes they are put in a slightly lower grade. It is not common and would likely not result in a 15 or 16 year old being in 6th grade, agreed. But there may be reasons for a slightly older kid than usual being in 6th other than the student being held back.


Way back when I did my student teaching (in FCPS), the 6th grade class I was placed in had three 14-yr olds. Two were young mothers—both of whom themselves had young mothers (grandmothers at 27 and 28). The 3rd was a boy several inches taller and about 100 lbs heavier than me. This was 20 years ago. So I could believe a 15-yr old sixth grader.

A lawsuit, police report? For a 6th grader?


Yes

Be weary about hearsay and gossip.


Yes. It did happen.

Now, why are you here gaslighting?

You do realize that some of the 6th graders are 15, 16 years old and larger than adults?


That doesn’t mean you have a right to information about a minor student. What exactly are you seeking to do with this information? Schools are absolutely bound by certain privacy laws that prevent them from disclosing specifics about these incidents, including any disciplinary action. You may not like that but that is the law.


ACPS uses an overly broad interpretation of privacy laws to avoid providing parents sufficient information about risks to health and safety faced by their children in ACPS schools. ACPS could share more than the nothing they generally share by not providing student identifying information about particular students.


What do you want to know specifically if indeed another student punched a teacher? Should the school be putting out a press release for such incidents? You think other school districts actually do that? You keep asking for more info but I’m not clear on what info you want. They aren’t going to name a student or even disclose disciplinary or juvenile criminal action taken.


No, I do not think there should be a public statement on this but if a parent ask for confirmation that a peer punched a teacher (no names of the student) that question should be answered. Also, ACPS’s limited statements about the Minnie Howard fight this week (never mind what happened last year) is the better example.

Well, since November was only 9 days ago, that doesn't seem particularly interesting. Is he not allowed to go on vacation, or have a medical issue, or have a family member who may have a medical issue?
