Another day in Public School
I see you've been here before, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! I'm in a contest to win a Bag Makeover. I really need this since Chocolate melted in my bag and I haven't been able to replace it. Please vote for me!!! It only takes a second!
I’ve not been happy having my kids in public school since day one. This morning takes the cake.
On Friday, my son came home with a bite mark on his wrist. I asked what was wrong and he told me the story. The other little boy wanted something that he had, and bit him. I don’t mean a pre-schooler. I mean the 10year old football prodigy in his 4th grade class.
My son is a screamer. If you tickle him, hold him down, thump him he screams and squeals. You can hear him all over the place.
I sent pictures of my childs arm, and the account of the inccident to the school by email Friday afternoon.
I received a reply. Of course I was called by the wrong last name. That ticks me off. My ex and I were never married, and the vice principal knows that. My name was at the bottom of my original email also. But past that I was told that my son never screamed, asked for help, and no other kids were involved (aka. pulled the biting kid off of my son)
If I bit you, would you scream? If you bit me, I’m gonna scream and more, especially if you are laying on top of me. I wouldn’t ask you to stop, you stop and things would be ok until my mother saw the mark on my arm nearly 4 hours later.
Where was the PE coach, I have no idea. Since my son didn’t scream, he didn’t know anything was going on. Hmmm…. Come to find out our school has a new vice principal…the PE coach. I never knew it, and I’m sure the rest of the parents in the school don’t know it…not all of them, not the majority.
The biting child also happens to be the grandson of a very important person on the School Staff, who’s office is within feet of the principal and vice principals’ offices. Hmm…
I’ve done homeschool before. I’m not convinced that I can handle all three of my kids every day for school, but I’m getting more and more convinced every day that it is my best option for the future. Please pray that I find an answer.

You know…I'm not big on conspiracy theories and coverups and such…but it sounds like stuff is getting spept under the rug to me!!! Show 'em what country girls are made of!
Oh hun – what a stress you just don't need – thinking of you and your family and prayers for you too.
Hope it sorts itself out and things at the school come to the surface for all to see. xxx
This is why I am considering homeschooling or private school. Hope it all gets worked out soon.
So sorry to hear that that happened. I LOVE homeschooling. And, if you think that you couldn't handle homeschooling three kids, then you are making it way too hard on yourself. I'm so glad you are following my Vacation Schooling blog – you inspire me to make it so tempting to homeschool that you do it and love it, too! Feel free to email me with questions.
