How do I go about contacting my sons school?

How to go about contacting sons school: My son is 9 and in 3rd grade. Has always been a good student. And made lots of friends and been kind to classmates. He reads at a 6th grade level and has ive always gotten compliments from his previous teachers about him being on task. We recently moved and today would be my sons 3rd day at his new school. His new teacher “Mr.Smith” has been saying some not so nice things to him. And now he no longer wants to go to school cuz of him and is in tears about it. Asking me if he can have a new teacher. Mr.Smith asked my son why he hadnt done a problem and he told him he didnt understand. He proceeded to ask my son if he was in special ed… my son said no, and then the teacher pulled him outside and asked him if he called his last school if theyd tell him he was a bad kid or a good kid. Im going to call the school tomorrow about this. But im wondering if im over reacting. I feel bad for my child. And his feeling being hurt by an adult at a brand new school. What would you do?

Oh hell no. I’d call the school and let them know… no adult should ever speak to a kid that way. I’d be livid

Definitely not over reacting. Mr. Smith sounds like a dick. He shouldn’t be speaking to students that way. I would schedule a meeting with the principal and Mr. Smith and maybe file a complaint?

Call and ask or the principal and speak to them about the situation if they don’t handle it find your schools superintendent and contact them …that’s not acceptable behavior from a teacher.

No child should be talked to like this because if they had a serious issue with your child they should have called you to set up and time to either zoom you or meet with you in person. This moment in their lives could change their entire perception on school I know something like this changed my sons

You can also go to the school district to file a complaint

I would have already gotten some charges if a teacher treated my child like that…… my family is something no one hurts

Call the school! Never tolerate anything bad a teacher says to a kid.

That’s not over reacting in my opinion… He shouldn’t be rude like that, or discussing anything like that with your child.

Talk to the principal and set up a meeting with the teacher present.

Go in IN PERSON first thing Monday morning, and get your son a new teacher. If they won’t switch him, get him a new school. This sort of problem doesn’t get better by itself, and it’s also unlikely to get better after you complain.
A fresh start seems best for all concerned.

That’s no way to treat a student, much less a new student that’s trying to adjust to new surroundings. Sounds like a bully to me. Yeah, he would hear from me, but I would also include the principal in my meeting.

I wouldnt call. They would have to look at me. If the school dont do anything go above them and go to the board of education.

As a former teacher, it sounds like Mr. Smith needs a new profession! I’m so sorry your son is going through this. A teacher should be there to support the transition, not belittle a new student. I agree with what Lindsey said above - document. Start with the teacher, then escalate it to the principal if needed. So sorry - I hope things get better soon. :heart:

Nope that wouldn’t happen. I would be calling the school and having the class switched. That teacher shouldn’t be teaching young Kids. Well any kids for that matter. This momma bear would have someones ass on a platter for doing this

I don’t know why you would ask a question like that? Walk into the school and ask for the damn principal

I would be at that the next morning with my child and that teacher would not treat my child that way. We would be having a meeting immediately.

That’s out of like 100% the teacher is there to teach not berate. Definitely request a different teacher at least

Not to be tolerated. Not only is he directly insulting a little boy but he is simultaneously mocking and insulting the special ed community. As if that is even relevant in the first place. He should not be working with children with an attitude like that.

I would be putting something in my kids book bag and record what’s happening in class or have him take something in his pocket to record things. So that you have proof to take to the school board

request a meeting with the teacher and principal. If there isn’t a resolution, then go to the superintendent. Always have a paper trail and documentation. Sadly, you have to go through the chain of command. If the superintendent doesn’t help then go to the board of education.

I’d be at that school Monday morning waiting for the doors to be open and tell them my child and teacher both were going to be present as I talked to the principal about the issue also I would make sure my child was moved from his classroom that day

Call and give them some shit, that’s not acceptable!! Show your son, you’ve got his back!!

I would be mad too I would be going to the school first thing and talking to the principal

Go in and ask to speak to the principal or vice principal …don’t address the teacher yourself …the teacher can twist your Convo and say you came off in a threatening manner …trust me …and this way there is a record of the issue Incase it doesn’t get resolved because if you need to take it further to lay a complaint with the school board …the principal will have no choice but to discuss the issue before it gets out of hand …who knows …this teacher could possibly have prior complaints …don’t be intimidated …it’s your baby and something isn’t right … brightest blessings :+1::gift_heart:

I would have been all over that teacher asking him who he thought he was talking to a child like that. You simply walk with your son into the school the next time you take him and go speak to the principal while your child waits outside the principal’s office. I would demand he be put in a different classroom and that “Mr Smith” be reprimanded for the way he spoke to your child. I would also

How? Walk in and request a meeting with the principal. My daughter is at a new school for 3rd grade and when we went to meet the teacher he blatantly ignored her. So I asked for a meeting and told her my baby needed a new teacher and why. By the next day, I had received an email from the new one. And if they say no, they mention how the school board (or whomever) would live to know that their teachers bully the students and administration allows it. Don’t play with me :grin:

Absolutely not over reacting. Call the school and set up a meeting with the principal and this teacher.

Momma, you are Not overreacting in the least! I’ve already have a reputation at my kids school cause I’m “that mom” that don’t let shit slide. Be your son’s voice, make I scene if need be to get your point across. I told my kids principle so long as they did what they were supposed to do I’ll be the nicest mom they ever met, but as soon as they do something like that, I would become the biggest bitch they ever met. Let them know your not a push over, and they’ll listen and take action

If go into mr smiths office and have a word to him !!!

No you’re not over reacting. Call both schools. That teacher is a dick!

I would call the principal and complain. That’s rude. Maybe switch teachers too

  1. Go to the school. Don’t call because they will have a chance to just ignore it.

  2. Demand a meeting with the principal. Tell principal during meeting that you are demanding your child be changed to another class. That day. No matter what.

  3. Tell the principal what the teacher said about your child being “special ed” which is incredibly offensive to parents of special needs kids.

  4. Demand this incident is put on the teachers record or you will go to the superintendent and make sure they know about the full incident.

Do NOT allow them to say your child heard wrong or that the teacher is kidding or “just that way”. Because none of that behavior is acceptable.

If things don’t change that day, go to the superintendent and make them aware. If things still don’t change, go to the media.

I would be on the office face to to face with the teacher. Then I would politely ask what was said to my child . Then act Accordingly. Sometimes children have a hard time with change an a new school and new faces can be difficult for them.

No. You are not over reacting set up an appointment with principal and the teacher at the same time. Have son there and let him hear what hey say with you there and then ask him his side and make them listen. This way everyone hears the same. I had some very bad experiences with teacher and principal. Took my son to a counselor and had it all documented. It hit the news paper and the government came and cleaned up the school. Several
Lost jobs. Support your child. An abusive teacher nor a bully teacher should never be tolerated

Email the school superintendent’s office. Everyone’s emails should be on the school website tell them you want to have a meeting.

Definitely call the school

Id be AT the school raising hell… In absolutely no way is that acceptable from this “Mr Smith”. You are not over reacting at all.

I already commented on the previous post about this - I would go directly in person to the school to speak to the principal. I would also go directly to the superintendent as well!

I would physically go to the school and talk to the principal and see what’s going on, some teachers are not great but most are amazing. I always contacted the school in person is there was ever a problem, don’t just send an email

O hell no thats totally uncalled for

No you are not over reacting. This teacher is an arragant fool and is picking g on the new kid

Nope ain’t no way in hell any one would ever speak to my child like that.

This is why my children are finishing this year out then home schooling. This world is absolutely trash now a day and they do more bullshit then learning …

Good luck girl

This is definitely concerning. I would have a conversation with the teacher and get their side as well and then take that information to the principal. I do agree email is a good idea to keep a “paper” trail. I would email the teacher saying exactly what your child said.
