The drama continues and still ... just one tantrum? That's all I hear and no one can tell me why it is such a big deal. Now I'm hearing that maybe he'll have to wait until they NEED to make more space in his current class, which doesn't seem fair either. I will await a meeting where I hope for clear communication and shared goals ... Thank you, thank you, thank you, Nancy, for your supportive two cents.

And as a Kapha...i know a little bit about being complacent and not saying anything... :-) hmmmmmm. while i appreciate reading the back and forth in your mind and with the other folks involved….i’d push a little. one stupid hand-washing tantrum? really? i’d ask if there were other tantrums or incidents that you didn’t know about (and if not then again, one small incident?) because maybe there were – and then it might make more sense. but it seems more like it could have been used as an incentive/teaching moment – “Jake, in your next class everyone washes their hands when they’re supposed to, because they are big kids”. whatever…just sayin’ – this seems unreasonable to me too.
