September 2009 ended with a bang. There were so many things to attend to. It was really hard to bear especially when we escalated our complaint to the school district's area superintendent's office and the ESE. On 30 September 2009, AX had hand/finger marks on his upper right arm/shoulder and lower right arm. It was pretty evident that he was having a struggle. He got physically hurt so physical marks were left on the right arm. I have to state it again, he was physically hurt so physical marks were left on the right arm. I just hope it was not done with intention. I noticed the marks right after he sat on his car seat and asked him to change his shirt as we had an ortho appointment at@ 3:00PM. I flipped. I asked him to come with me and we approached his autism teacher and the ESE specialist. The teacher kept saying he did not know any of it. The ESE specialist acted like it was no big deal. She did not show any concern at all. We left the school grounds and it seemed like we were not attended to.
The next day, 1 October 2009, we went to the principal's office at 1:30PM. The ESE specialist and the principal were present. As usual, wrongdoing was denied. The pictures on the camera were set aside like it was no big deal.
Today, I was told by the autism teacher that they are doing the behavior log for AX. This was written by the person who assists AX in Language Arts mainstreaming and Math mainstreaming. There was no mentioned of 30 Sept 2009 incident.
