Behavior Issues & AYP


Hello everyone! I hope you all have had a wonderful weekend. On my blog I would like to discuss behavioral issues in the classroom. Please respond as honestly as possible to the scenario listed below.

Scenario: In your class you have a student that misbehaves on a daily basis. He talks back to the teacher, has trouble following classroom rules and procedures, and consistently expresses how he doesn't care about school or the teachers. One day he uses profane language towards a teacher. The teacher writes him up and calls the parent. The principal refuses to send him home due to AYP. Do you think the student should have been sent home or was AYP more important? Please explain your answer.
