>> Wow, I would definitely find out what is going on. The teachershould have sent him to the office to see the nurse and/or call home.I agree, it was handled very badly. It doesn't sound like his needsare being considered very much at school.I still say you need to make sure the principal finds out about this.The school administration really should know this teacher is handlingthings in this manner. I guarantee they will talk to her about a moreappropriate way to handle such situations. To give you someperspective, when I got a fat lip from a playground accident when Iwas a first grader, I was taken to the principal's office (I think thenurse was not there--small rural school), he checked me out and madesure I was okay, and

called my mom to come and get me since I wasupset and crying.Ruth

I just sat through a eight hour mediation meeting with the school

district. They tried to convince me that my son was making weapons

at school because he likes to take string, wire or whatever he can

find to make creations. Something he has done all his life. They

tried to convince me he is a danger to other students. It was the

hardest day in my entire life. The school will tell you anything to

cover their buts and get what they want. You just need stand up for

your son and fight them. Go above her head and keep moving up the

ladder. Your child has the right to a safe experience in school.
