They handle medical emergencies every day. Be real.

Then teachers need to document and fight to get these kids what they need.

You want teachers to get psychiatrist appointments for the violent kids?

Maybe MCPS should stop giving them so much ammunition.

Thanks for admitting it, but you guys don't need ammunition to start spreading and showing your ignorance.
It's obvious.

You agree MCPS gives plenty of reasons to MAGA. Without that, the MAGA complaints would be hollow. But MCPS always provides concrete examples to bolster the MAGA rants.

LOL
There's no concrete evidence, but y'all MAGAs don't need or care about evidence or truth to start spreading misinformation and fear mongering.
Your post and this thread are perfect example.

I don't understand this when most school shootings are inside jobs and the shooter will know this.

The Department of Education decided to allow VIOLENT CHILDREN to remain in the classroom. Teachers by themselves have no ability to change the federal mandates.

It’s we, the TAXPAYERS, who have the RESPONSIBILITY and the POWER to DISMANTLE this DESTRUCTIVE federal agency.

Re: guns confiscated on high school campuses: this is an issue of beefs between specific violent kids with major issues, and highly unlikely to affect your average middle class kid.

Re: chair-throwers: this is the real issue at the elementary level. Kids with emotional disturbances who cannot regulate themselves but who the school cannot legally send elsewhere or restrain or otherwise deal with. This is definitely something you will experience that we need a solution for.

When a kid goes on a chair and desk throwing rampage, why can’t a parent be called to pick up their child?

Because half the time the parents don't pick up the phone. When they do, they often refuse to come get their kid.

That long article about how MCPS is failing our special needs kids did not at all have the perspective that there are some parenting fails that are greatly contributing to the behavior issues. And yes I can confirm that this happens in the ES where I work. Parents don’t want to deal with their own kid.

Here’s an idea. Do the paperwork and push for a special placement and more help. I wouldn’t get my kid either. Don’t have a kid like that but have a kid with sn and we’ve been refused an iep or any help.

Should teachers be assaulted? If a child is violent in the classroom, why wouldn’t you come to get him?

Many of these families beg for help and aren't getting it. If I begged for help and it was denied, at some point no. I tried to get an IEP this year. Long documented SN. I was refused even an evaluation. I reached out the the AP and she said she would help and made a dumb comment why. At some point, schools/admin need to step up and help these kids and teachers or find new jobs.

You responded to a question about classroom violence. A mentality unstable raging child is not a learning problem. It’s a medical problem.

Schools are staffed by teachers, not physicians. If your child is violently raging, he needs a medical facility, not a classroom with a teacher.
