I am not a lawyer, but I used to work at a daycare center and took several classes on child abuse. You don't have to have proof of who did it. All you have to have is a SUSPICION. You did the right thing taking pictures and filing a police report. Was it a center or home? I admire you for not beating the piss out of whoever did it, cause I would have! Call a lawyer. It can't hurt anything. Someone obviously did something to your son. Don't let them get away with it! Can he tell you what happened? People who do that give good providers and centers a bad name! I am sorry this has happened to you. Good luck. \nI would like to know how this turns out if you want to share. My e-mail is carieabrown02@yahoo.com

My lawschool also housed the county's law library.  They had an impressive collection of forms for pro se patrons.  The library staff assisted people to find forms, but cannot give legal advice.

Any organization has records and bylaws which are filed with the state or the responsible agency in order to be legal and have the status that they do.\n\nIf there is a legal or corporate bylaw outlining the procedure or reasons to remove, then you have a case.  Then again, whoever in the school board that appoints or oversees the organization for who gets to be president, they can usually be the first resource.\n\nYou may even have a procedure to call an emergency meeting or get it on the adjenda to challege the president's reponse to your allegations in the organization.\n\nOr, the president may make time to meet with you and anyone else that is interested to discuss your views.

First, try legal aide.  (NOT the public defender who HAS to take cases).  Legal aide chooses their cases and are dedicated lawyers who care (cuz there isn't money in their jobs....it's non-profit).  \n\nFind all documentation you can get, all witnesses who can vouch for you, any medical records, etc etc...to back you up.  Make your case strong.\n\nThere are many false allegations of child abuse out there...been victim to it myself...there are ways to clear yourself.  Trust in the Lord, get your documentation, find your witnesses, and put it in His hands.

Find your local homeschool association, and talk to several people there.  They can give you better information on how to deal with the local and state authorities, as well as letting you know about curriculum.  You may be able to buy (at bargain prices) or borrow (free is goood!) curriculum from them.\n\nYour school may just be blowing smoke -- in most states you don't need their approval, since there are 1st amendment rights at issue here.  (I.e., you'd win in court, but who wants a court fight?)

Call the school & ask for one.  If they don't have any records that far back, try one of the sources below.  Some schools microfische old school records.

Call your High School... depending on when you graduated they may or may not still have your records on file....At my school after a year your records are shipped to central office/records...

I guess I can assume you aren't unionized.  If you are speak to your union rep.  If not I'm sure you could find a lawyer that can help you by looking in the phone book.  Or, maybe you could ask one of the teachers thats been working at the school for a long time if they know of someone you could speak to.

I don't know about specific laws in Maine, but in NC I believe the teachers can hold back a student without consent. If they want to hold your child back, it's probably for the best.

Talk to the principal of the school.  I'm sure they can arrange something.\n\nSue them if they don't see things your way.

The best answer I could possibly give would be to consult with the teachers association as well, possibly the school board. This is a tough spot your in and I understand you are at a loss as to what to do but those are the only options you have unless you take legal action.

Ask your school - the office secretary should know, or have records.

Probably not. That sounds extreme and unfair to me. I would ask a lawyer or look at the schools dress code though. You could probably sue them...But that requires a lawyer. But yeah, check out the dress code. Hope that helps\n\n\npeace
