First question, makes their parents deal with them instead of the school. Second question, usually nothing changes because their parents can't do anything with them either. When I make phone calls to parents about student behavior, the vast majority of them are either apathetic, resentful towards me for calling them, defend their child's behavior no matter the situation, or openly admit that the child is the same way at home, and they don't have a solution.


That sounds like the suspension doesn't work for the student and the only benefit is it removes the child from the rest of the class. If an alternative exists where the child is still removed from the class, it seems worth trying.

there is a solution to what you are talking about. Enough suspensions, they get sent to these temporary disciplinary schools. BUT, most of the time instead of sticking it out and reforming their behavior: Mom and Dad just switch districts by changing the kids home address illegally.

DAEP in Houston I believe?
