Yikes

Fridays are short days for our students. The kids leave at 1:30 and the teachers have PD from 1:45 to 4:00. For the past two days taking notes on all the things that our behavior child does, good and bad, focusing on the good- even stretching the truth a little bit. After looking at Emotional and Behavior disorders, I have reached the conclusion that this child has O.D.D. Oppositional Defiant Disorder. He had a hard time focusing and ignoring others. (I'm venting at school while I should be getting ready for PD) My co-teacher just let me know that during lunch our O.D.D. child what punching the hell out of our other behavior child and that the CPS psychologist saw that (hopefully something will happen now) But he pushed one student and they were going up the stairs causing a chain reaction so that 3 other children almost fell, thankfully they were all safe. And then something set him off just as we were getting ready to dismiss. He was completely fine one second, and then the next he is pulling on the book bag of one little girl and keeps picking on her. when I had her move somewhere else, he decided to pick on our other behavior child, pulling on his book bag and jacket. When I had this other child move he started trying to pull on other children's book bags and clothes and trying to kick them and trip them so they would fall. All the while laughing and I was struggling against him. I got some help bringing him into the classroom where he started running around and went into the closet and smacking his book bag as hard as he could on the wall (this whole smacking incident went on for two minutes). He then seemed to calm down and ready to rejoin. He needs serious help, and constant attention, something that I do not think any of us are in any position to provide him with.
