DON'T LET YOUR SCHOOL DISTRICT DESTROY YOUR CHILD'S SELF ESTEEM, ACADEMIC FUTURE AND CAREER DREAMS

After the hearing, the decision to expel must be made within 3 school days pursuant to California Education Code section 48918(e).  WHAT ARE THE CHOICES THAT THE SCHOOL EXPULSION PANEL HAVE WHEN DECIDING A SCHOOL EXPULSION HEARING?  The hearing panel has several choices: (1) To recommend expulsion. This means that your child cannot attend any equivalent school in the District if the board accepts this recommendation. (2) To suspend expulsion.  This means that they would suspend the enforcement of the expulsion for a period of not more than a calendar year.   During the period of suspension enforcement, your child is on probationary status.  The governing board may revoke the suspension of the expulsion if your child violates any student conduct behavior.  If your child does well on probationary period, the governing board can expunge his records of the expulsion hearing.  (3) The panel can recommend not to expel your child. If this is the recommendation, the process stops at this point and nothing goes before the governing board. WHAT ARE MY CHILD'S APPEAL RIGHTS IF THE LOCAL GOVERNING SCHOOL BOARD ADOPTS THE PANELS RECOMMENDATION OF EXPULSION? If your child is expelled, your child has the right within 30 calendar days following the decision of the governing board to expel, to file an appeal to the county board of education.  WILL AN EXPULSION AFFECT MY CHILD'S ABILITY TO GET INTO COLLEGE? Colleges are getting harder and harder to get into. Many colleges now require prospective students to provide information on the Common Application, a mainly on line form shared by 315 colleges, which ask students to disclose whether they have any student disclipine that resulted in probation, suspension, removal, dismissal or expulsion from school. We are very experienced in handling student expulsion hearings.   Colleges are getting harder and harder to get into.   For that particular reason, it is a good idea to avoid any expulsion record.  Millions of dollars in future earnings are at stake.

Great Parent Advocating for Danielle daughter from Bullying from Top School Officials who physically hurt her child’s arm.

Danielle Martinez,
I am so sorry to hear about what happened to your little girl. Immediately go to the police department and file a complaint and do the same with the Principal of your child’s school. I would go to your district and ask for a complaint form and file it with your School District and ask for accountability and the steps they will take to assure the safety of your child from this Teacher and student.

It was so important that you received the proper care for your child in the hospital and hopefully the medical records are documented with the facts what happened to your child by the Teacher. Depending on what state you live in the protocol for the hospital some times is to notify the police dept. and have them come to the hospital to obtain a statement from you and your child.

There is a law for school officials to have a responsibility to protect your child and keep them safe. I will forward you the last post on the following sites to help you and your family. Please make sure most importantly that you follow up in writing in emails and copy your school board and contact from Dept. of Education employee who can also refer you to complaints that can be filed with your local Teacher’s Credentialing Board.

Take the actions of this Teacher very serious and they should be watched carefully by proper authorities and contact the District Attorney Office too.

IN MY OPINION THE TEACHER SHOULD IMMEDIATELY SHOULD HAVE BEEN PUT ON LEAVE.
In most cases these people are suppose to protect your child and family, however in other cases their may be nepotism practices to protect the employees or the student who is the Bully.

The status of the family of the bully may play an important role not to protect your child and protect the bully instead, further victimizing your daughter. You are your own advocate for your child and keep up the great job to protect them and take the seriousness of not only BULLYING FROM TOP SCHOOL OFFICIAL, but new laws protect your child who was victimized by the other student who was bullying your daughter.

I will get more information to you to help and keep up the super job protecting your daughter and take time to take a vacation together, communicate feelings and above all let your daughter know nobody should ever attack, hit, push, verbally abuse or not protect your child at a school from other School Officials.

Blessings to you and your family, especially your daughter who shared what happened to her and knows that you are protecting her throughout the trauma and healing process.

NMUSD Board Meeting on 2-14-12 exposes school violations and fraud!

BULLYINGWARRIOR SHARES: Kimberly leaves copies of her 1st claim for each of the Board Members and Superintendent, when she was told at the NMUSD Board Meeting in Jan. 2012 by Dave Brooks her information had been taken apart by an unknown person in the Superintendent’s Office and at District. 

NMUSD Community Members and Kimberly know this was considered FRAUD, especially when it was information, evidence that harmed her child from RETALIATION after reporting at Newport Heights Elementary School a 5th grade Teacher breaking a School Violation bringing her toddler onto campus and into Teachers classroom while Teaching.

You can hear board President, Dave Brooks refusing information and not to be given to Board Members, so Kimberly leaves the copies at the podium.

Many people in the District and at Board Meeting still wonder what happened to the copies left at the podium and why know body followed up on a school violation endangering the safety, dignity, respect and equal education of a elementary school child. 

Is it not their job to protect, treat everyone equal and simply get to the bottom of why many school employees allowed BULLYING FROM TOP SCHOOL OFFICIALS, THAT COVERED UP FRAUD, SCHOOL VIOLATIONS AND CREATED NEW POLICIES THAT ARE STILL UNHEARD OF TO DATE BY THE DEPT. OF EDUCATION IN SACRAMENTO AND ORANGE COUNTY, CALIFORNIA.
