Charlie’s Situation
Charlie, a black student in a mostly white school district, is a 5th grader who receives is also in the gifted program at his elementary school. Charlie is on grade level in math and two years above grade level in reading. Charlie has a slight history of disruptive problems, but nothing major. He is sometimes seen passing notes in class and making his classmates laugh when he gets bored. His teacher and principle have discussed this with him in the past and his parents have spoken to him (in the little time they have outside of their work schedules as a caretaker and grocery store manager).
One day on the playground, Charlie was being teased by a classmate for his hair. He angrily shouted at the classmate who would not let up and eventually pushed him to the ground.
Charlie was called in by a monitor and had to return to his classroom to gather his belongings and see his teacher. He was upset that no one was listening to him. So, he called her names and pretended to swing his fists toward her. Charlie’s teacher called the principal, who, in accordance with the student code of conduct at the school, issued an additional 10-day suspension for Charlie, bringing his total days of suspension to 13.
