Excellent! Sounds like a good ending.

I'm obviously concerned about the incident but also a little worried that this first year teacher doesn't have control of her class. What would you do? Thanks!
I'd drop by school A LOT in the next couple of weeks. Always unannounced, always trying to peep in for a few minutes before teacher sees you. I don't care how creepy it sounds, I have done this at 2 schools and it's the only way for me to really get a pulse on whats happening in classroom and how to approach teacher, Principal or someone else.
At what school were you able to creep around the halls peering into classrooms without someone from administration realizing? If you were able to do that, your school has bigger problems than a teacher yelling.

Daily only happens in the very rough schools. Occasionally, in most schools.

What kind of school does your kid go to? No, if my kid was getting hit daily I'd be switching schools pretty damn quick.
