My child is being punched at kindergarten by a girl who also continually does things to him. For example, putting soap on his chair, messing with his outdoor clothes, etc.
The teachers know and have talked to the girl’s parents, but the behavior continues. My child is scared to go and cries about it sometimes. I’m not entirely sure how to handle it, because that’s the teachers job and I’m not there to help or see it.
Eventually, I’m considering involving the police, but that seems pretty last resort.
Any suggestions?
Edit
The director and teachers are all aware of the issues
Can you get guidance counselors, or someone above the teacher involved? Maybe changing classrooms?
It really is the teacher’s responsibility to make the classroom a safe place, and if they aren’t doing it, escalating the problem is the next step. You shouldn’t be scared of school, and if you are, the administration has failed.
