  Case: Repeated Infractions with Little Consequences
A high school student has been sent to the office and in-school detention (ISD) multiple times for making sexual noises, hand-gestures, and comments during class. This has been addressed with the student's mother, administrators, the counselor, and the school social worker. The other day, this same student was caught exposing the complete right side of his rear-end to two female students at the beginning of class as everyone was filing in. He had his pants and underwear pulled down completely on the right side. The teacher immediately sent the student to the office for indecent exposure, and the student walked away with only 2 days of in-school suspension. The teacher does not feel that the infractions are receiving the appropriate consequences, and the student's behavior continues to worsen. What should the teacher do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The important thing for the teacher to is to follow school and district procedures for this type of situation. The teachers needs to document every incident, conversation, conference, etc. should something more serious occur and proof can be given for a history of inappropriate behavior by the male student. The teacher needs to keep in close contact with administration to help resolve the issue.

Comments: If I were in this situation, I would do this because keeping a written record of what the student has done will help in the long run if the situations persist or worsen.

Comments: I agree that records need to be kept every time this student misbehaves. This is absolutely inappropriate. Maybe getting other students to talk to him and tell him that what he is doing is not cool could work. Obviously he is trying to hard to impress others.
