As most of you know, around this time last year, it was a terrible time for us. My son came home full of bruises, we found out it was his teacher, then we started the fight to make sure he was not only fired, but that he would also lose his licence. Aside from the…

Yesterday in the afternoon I received a note from the monkey’s teacher. He had a meltdown on their way to PE. The same thing happened last year. After the incident with his teacher, he hated PE. His psychiatrist said maybe something happened to him in PE or he is associating his abuse with PE. Either…

My mom had been mentioning that the monkey really likes his speech therapist. Ms. Sarah joined our team about a year ago and the monkey has been doing pretty good with her. But on Monday I was able to take him to therapy and see first hand what my mom was referring to. The monkey…

Open letter to my son’s school principal: Dear Ma’am, There are no words to sum up what these past six months has been for us. How does one reason everything that happened to my son? I don’t know if you understand the depth of damage that this teacher, your administration, your school, that you yourself…

I’ve been a nervous wreck all morning. First day of summer school.  New school.  New teacher that we haven’t met. I keep getting flashbacks of his bruises from January. 💔💔. I tried to keep distracted, if not I felt I was going to get an anxiety attack. 😟 We don’t know who his new teacher…

Today after I dropped off the flowers, I went to my son’s classroom. The principal came in and asked for me to step outside to talk. We went into an office nearby. She said that she had heard about the flowers I took to the paraprofessional, and she said, “You shouldn’t have done this. This…

Brought flowers to the para professional that notified the principal when she saw this teacher abuse my son. I told her how indebted we are towards her. If it wasn’t for her, we would have never known why our son came home full of bruises. She told me it was the hardest things she has…

  Since our son was assaulted by his previous teacher, he doesn’t leave his classroom. He doesn’t go to PE, to sensory room, to therapy, to the cafeteria. He simply refuses and has severe meltdowns when the staff tries. His new teacher has tried to get him to go at least to the cafeteria, to…

  Today we had our time with the board, our five minutes. The district had their turn toothed they rebutted, we rebutted, board asked questions, we answered they answered. But in the end the board ruled against us. They did say they have a condition, they want the district to increase their communication towards the us….

I received a call from the principal yesterday about how bad my monkey was doing. Apparently, he cried so much they struggled to get him off the bus; they couldn’t get him inside to class. Which I don’t understand since he had an amazing weekend. And yesterday in the morning as we were waiting for…

I feel as if the monkey is stuck. We just can’t seem to move forward. I went to see him at school last Thursday. He was in the classroom with the teacher and the aid, no other children. The other kids were in PE. Since his assault, he doesn’t want to go to PE, nor…

This evening, the principal’s secretary dropped this letter off at our doorstep. And I feel validated. This is all we wanted. We wanted the district to acknowledge what they did wrong. Their teacher not only hurt my son, but they also tried to hide what happened. And when I went I complain, they stated what…
