My daughter had a similar experience.  (We live in Indiana).  You must act now to protect your daughter.  \n\n1.  Hire an attorney.  The attorney can explain YOUR and your daughter's rights.  Any information you receive from the school will be slanted to their best advantage.\n2.  Demand that your daughter not be in any classes or situations where the boy is --- including lunch, homeroom, gym, and especially  where he could be alone with her.\n3. Talk to your daughter and ask her what she wants.  It is important that you give her a voice in what occurs.  Don't shelter her, that will only make her feel more vulnerable.  Have her go with you and Dad when you go to the attorney.  What you need to do now is to empower her.  Not to be mean, but I sense that your daughter is a great student but perhaps 'shy' or non-assertive which allowed this boy to assault your daughter. Your job now is to give her the skills to protect herself now and in the future.  You need to TELL her that you are doing everything to protect her and put your words into action.  \n4.  I'm unsure where you live.  Indiana has enacted anti-bullying legislation, perhaps your state has too.  \n6.  If your daughter has been traumatized so much that she is having trouble focusing in school...doesn't feel safe...etc., talk to her school counselor, perhaps your daughter could have an extended excused absence until the boy is sentenced and removed from school...\n5. But to answer your question, your school must actively protect your daughter from this boy.  \n\nGOOD LUCK.

If your school is in the US, it is required by law to have regular fire drills so that both students and staff know just what to do in the event of a fire or other emergency. If they have not had a fire drill, or if you don't remember what you are supposed to do, please ask your parents to contact the school and request that there be a fire drill and an assembly on fire prevention and safety.\n\nIf your school is not in the US, and not subject to those regulations, might I suggest that you talk to your teacher about it? Perhaps your teacher might bring it to the attention of the school administration and together they can develop a program to help everyone in case a fire breaks out. Also, in most countries, fire departments will send out firefighters to talk to students and staff about fire safety and prevention. If there is no fire plan in your school, the local fire department can help you develop one.\n\nI know what they recommend students do in my area, but different schools may have different policies, so I don't want to tell you exactly what you should do, other than a few things that they say everyone, young people and adults included, should keep in mind during a fire.\n\n1. Do not panic. \n2. Make sure someone in charge knows about the fire so they can notify the fire department.\n3. Exit the building in an orderly and calm fashion. DO NOT take an elevator, take the stairs, as elevators can malfunction and people may be trapped.\n4. Once outside the building, stand away from it so that you are not injured by falling debris.\n\nThis is a really important question, and I am glad you asked it, but this isn't really the very best place to get answers. You need to talk to your parents and your teachers about it, and keep asking until you get a good answer and you understand exactly what you are supposed to do.

if the school was negligent or did not take reasonable care to prevent an injury.Accidents do happen.\nThe burden of proof is on you.

You need to get ahold of the county building department that the school is going to be in to get an answer to this question. If they don't have it, then you need to go to the State Department of Education - Construction Division.

That would be considered assault in my daughters school.\n\nCoach

I can't imagine that a school would ever put up a site like this or that government regulations would allow it. Although your intentions seem harmless enough, you can understand how this might violate students' privacy and put them in potential danger.

As safe as snitchin sounds that unfortunately never works. Your parents or the principal cant protect u when ur in the hallways or walkin outside from school. Do sumthin crazy like a bitch slap in the cafteria or pour a carton of milk on them. It may get u beat up one more time but ull earn ur respect and from them and others for standin up for urself.

wow...scary..I am amazed...this cannot be a security issue can it?  My boy's high school has the same rule and of a crowd of 100 or so during a meet the teachers day (I took off an hour from work and came straight there) the principal singled me out in the back row and said that hats were not allowed...i think he expected me to immediately take it off, but i just looked at him...if he taken the issue any further i would have walked out...this is a small town.\n\nI searched for the Saginaw michigan police department site and sent them an e-mail saying how manly they were for bringing violence to this terrible hat wearer.\n\nI'll agree that the man was tassered for resisting, but the police officer had no right to touch the man in the first place.  If it was a security issue, like hiding a gun or something...he could have hidden a heavy pistol a lot easier in his pocket,,,it cannot be aa security issue...but whatever, it should have at least been explained bvefore the officer grabbed the man's possessions and person

if there would be a child in a public school who would take drugs, steal, etc. etc. all after hours, the principal would have the full authority and right to expel this child from school, being that what is done after hours can have and does have an effect on the friends of this child in school. now being that in this private school there are certain standards, they don't want other kids to be influenced by such behaviour, and therefore although i'm not comparing what this girl is doing to drugs, however the concept is the same.

The lockers are actually the property of the school, and so is the space inside the lockers.  Although most schools will generally honor students' privacy inside the lockers, they are not legally obligated to do so.  They have every right to invade that privacy if they believe there is a good reason for doing so.

Students should be allowed to carry a cellular phone with them during school hours. To prevent disruption of class the phones should always be off. They should not use the phone unless they are on break or it is an emergency. Not a "Oh my goodness, my hair is a mess" emergency, but a true emergency. We have school violence and natural disasters, things that happen not on the average day, but a parent or guardian does feel more at ease believing that if they can find their child or reassure them. So I say allow cell phones, but be responsible. Don't disrupt the class.

It depends the school policy. You can ask your teacher or maybe your principle, then..

School districts set their own calendars. You would have to ask the school board for the district that question. Here, usually the kids are out that day, but the teachers have to work.

School policy and issues should be addressed and answers found at the local level.  There should be no national policy or federal guide lines on this or any other school issue.  If a local school decides that some form of physical discipline i9s applicable, it should be decided at the local level between the administration, the teachers and the parents.\n\nIn my opinion it isn’t likely to work, at least it won’t result in the type of environment conducive to excellence in education.  First there must be a foundation of behavior established.  This shouldn’t be a major challenge, we’ve done it before.\n\nAt one time it was understood by all that a school was for teaching.  That teachers were there to teach.  That the district, through the board of education and administration, were to provide a “teaching” environment.  Further, that there was an implied contract of the students and their parents that the student was there to participate in that education process.  Exceptions weren’t made for the student who would fit in, rather they were removed so that the teacher and the students could actually function in the education environment.\n\nThis doesn’t mean that the students removed didn’t have to go to school, rather they were placed in more restrictive institutions.  This could continue until they were in what we referred to as reform schools.  Their parents were expected to participate in supporting their children’s education or, their children were removed from them. \n\nPart of that education was the teaching of civility.  How do you act as a part of a member of society?  What does it mean to be a responsible member of society?  The children also must be taught the basics of education to function in society.  This means not only to be able to read, but to read with comprehension.  To be able to write clearly in script.  To understand the rules of spelling and sentence syntax.  To have a least a basic foundation of literature and history.  Certainly there must be understanding of mathematics and its use in society.\n\nShort of that, the local community has failed its responsibility.

its always a good idea to have a fence around any kind of pool, if it is on your property and some kids decide one day to go for a dip and something happens to them, then you are responsible for whatever may happen... better safe than sorry

The principal is responsible for seeing that his or her students arrive and depart in a safe manner. If they can not be out there they are to arrange for other teachers or perhaps the assistant principal to watch the parking lot. Saftey of their students should be your principals number one priority. If you are uncomfortable I would talk to either an AP or the principal.
