I received a call from Collin's aid today while I was on my way back from lunch (I wasn't driving). She proceeded to tell me that Collin was being bad and the principal said I would have to come and pick him up
She (one of the aids) said that everything was fine, he came in from recess with no problems (first nice day we've had in a while so this is a shock), went to his room noticed he had a sub-teacher and sub-aid. He ran out of the room and out the door and his AM teacher had to go get him. She said she brought him back and left and he got really mad, pulled and rolled up a big 10x12 rug and threw it and threw a kid sized chair and pulled on a little boys name tag so it choked him.
She said she called the principal and took him down to his office and he told her he didn't have time to deal with it to call me and I would have to come and pick him up. He told her he had a case conference to attend.
They called me at 1:25 I picked him up at 1:50 and guess who was there ?!?! The principal!!! He took me to the break room where they had him and he was sitting like a perfect angel having ST. His ST talked to me for a few minutes and said he had been acting fine since she got here and she would have never known anything was wrong until they told her. He was completely normal.
I let them know I was very upset that I was being made to take him home and that this was setting a bad example. That in the past they have not had any problems calling me to talk to him on the phone or come in to the school to spank his bottom I told them this was not setting a good precedent because he was not making the connection with the punishment and the behavior. Especially since he was allowed to go on with his day and have ST and was not being punished while at school and was now being good!!
The principal said he was to busy, he had a fire drill to run and a conference to attend!!! Excuse me what are we paying him for?!?! It would have taken him 5 minutes to fix the problem if he would handle things right to begin with. But, this is the man that wanted it written into his behavior plan that after being sent home for bad behaviors next they would expel him for 3 days instead of swatting him on the bottom and making him mind (which is legal in Indiana and I have asked to be written in to his IEP).
I called one of his teachers at home and she was furious. She said he has failed to act when she has asked for help with other students too!!
Sorry...I'm rambling
I asked Collin if he was bad and he said yes but now he was a good boy. I asked him if he hurt his friend and grabbed the name tag and he said yes. I explained to him that because he hurt his friend and I had to come to the school because he was bad he was getting a spanking and I spanked him in the parking lot.
I had to take him to my mom's and he told her he just wanted to see her.....Please tell me he does not understand what he just did and didn't do it on purpose!!!
I'm so mad and upset, upset with Collin for being bad and upset with the principal for how he handled it (or didn't handle it).
