  Case: Aggresive students
An aggressive student has been moved to your self-contain MOID classroom. You are familiar with the student and have taught this student previously in elementary school. The reputation of this student has been circulated and you are now receiving multiple calls from concerned parents who want to schedule a meeting to discuss a student that is not their own and who you cannot discuss with parents without breaking confidentiality laws. There is potential danger to the students peers but, you are sure with proper staff support and education you can keep everyone safe. Knowing that teachers do not choose who they are asked to teach and that EVERY student has the right to an education in the least restrictive environment, how will you convey this to concerned and angry parents?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Get all of the students onto a routine and the student on a personal classroom management plan. (I have seen this work in the classroom). Once you feel comfortable that the student can handle himself, invite parents into the classroom to shadow and that way the can feel comfortable with their child in your class.

Comments: I think that this solution is something the parents would appreciate. In having that open classroom policy and allowing the parents/guardians of your students allows the parents to feel welcome in their child's education.

Comments: I do not agree with this. This puts the child on trial and if they happen to have an off day, then the parents feel right in their stance. It puts too much pressure on the student.
