I would recommend that you keep all documentation or request all documentation when your child leaves the classroom to go to the principal or any time recess or breaks or lost as punishment. After you have the documentation, request in writing to your principal to assemble an IEP meeting to determine if your child has a disability that is having an educational impact. The impact is the loss instruction and social skills development your child suffers when not in class or at recess. Request for this meeting to be held in person so you can meet the people making important decisions about your child.

There are multiple disabilities that impact children’s behavior. ADHD is one. Sending a child to the principal is extreme so is the punishment matching the behavior which is also extreme? If the behavior is repeatedly outside the school expectation, then a plan needs to be developed so a child can learn coping skills and strategies to develop behaviors that align with the school expectations. A Behavior Intervention Plan is one way that the teacher can collect data.

DD had a teacher who was fond of passing the buck and escalating to the principal when it was not appropriate. DD was not sent to the principal but witnessed a lot of boys being sent there for things like "talking back," not being able to sit still, failing to follow directions on a worksheet. K teacher. This was a teacher issue, not a student issue or a school issue. Some teachers just stink at classroom management.

No, it's not developmentally appropriate for 5 year old boys to be able to sit all day in class and do worksheets. Why do you type things out about stuff you don't understand?

MCPS doesn't have kids do worksheets all day. Most don't even have enough paper for that many worksheets.

MCPS is trying to feminize young boys. God forbid the boy grows up to be a strong, assertive and confident man.

They just stick them on chromebooks all day. Maybe even worse than worksheets

Or better since adaptive interactive learning is a vast improvement

how did anyone learn before chromebooks. screen time is destroying a generation of children and to many of the kids in class, especially boys, they view it as a game to play with not learn with

Other parents seem to have similar experiences with athletic and high energy boys.
